Between 1700 and 1750, the population of Bath tripled from three to nine thousand and was comprised of diverse types. Doctors settled in Bath to administer to the patients who came seeking relief from \_42\_ such as gout, fever, palsy, rashes, and rheumatism. Professional gamblers stopped at Bath on their annual itinerary through London and the continental spas. The \_43\_ for visitors were September/October and March/April, although the entertainments were continuous all year. The aristocracy came from London to take the waters and escape the bustle of the big city. Parsons, country squires, tradesmen, and their wives came to mingle with the nobility. Indeed the seasonal retreat of the middle class to Bath may mark the first time in English history when the concept of \_44\_ for large numbers of working people became a reality. It’s essential to lie with maps. A map must distort reality in order to portray a complex, three-dimensional world on a flat sheet of paper.

A map cannot show everything, or it will hide critical information in a fog of \_46\_. The map, therefore, must offer a selective view of reality. There’s no escape from the cartographic \_47\_: to present a useful and truthful picture, an accurate map must tell white lies.
