the book choices - Ghost to Houston

My book (the name of which i can't remember) is part of a children's encyclopaedia, and what i do remember of its title is that it is the section from 'Ghost to Houston' (G-H)... I found it in the opp shop in Gerringong, and what i like about it is the coloured illustrations which are drawings. I thought it would be interesting to have a book in the collection that was more images than text. Like most of us (it seems) i don't have any specific rules to suggest in relation to the book, but chose it thinking that the combination of 'information' and graphic images might provide some interesting starting points. Overall the images are the main event from my perspective, so perhaps we could focus on that side of things. It would give us a chance to 'draw', whatever that may mean to each of us. I've been thinking a lot about drawing over the last year or so, and am curious about the breadth of possibilities, especially outside of standard conventions.
