pickGreat book which explores long forgotten nations, states, colonies and what have you on the basis of a stamp collection. It proves the importances of postage stamps as cultural artifacts for state building and nationalism. Easy to read, it lacks the heavy and pounding analysis of the iconography of the postage stamps.
