Crossing Latitude

Every line on a map tells a story — of power, of possibility, of people divided and connected in equal measure.

In Crossing Latitude, acclaimed travel writer Reece Davis traces the invisible boundaries that carve the planet, journeying along parallels and meridians from the equator to the Arctic Circle. Through deserts, oceans, and city streets, he meets those who live where these unseen lines dictate climate, culture, and fate.

From fishermen on the Tropic of Capricorn to scientists at 60° North, Davis uncovers how geography shapes humanity’s rhythm — and how the act of crossing a line, literal or metaphorical, reveals who we truly are.

Thought-provoking, vivid, and deeply human, Crossing Latitude invites readers to see the world not as a series of borders, but as a living, breathing web of connection.
