Readers of “The Idiot and the Odyssey: Walking the Mediterranean,” published in 2008, had two key suggestions. They wanted color photographs and more detailed maps illustrating The Idiot’s stroll.

That’s why the eBooks version of “The Idiot and the Odyssey II: Myth, Madness and Magic on the Mediterranean” published this year includes dozens of interactive maps and scores of seductive photographs.

The detailed Google maps literally take readers on a step-by-step journey with The Idiot as he roams and rambles through Italy, Greece and Turkey.

Idiot-ic maps begin with the first chapter.

Online readers zoom in on The Idiot.

Nearly two hundred photographs also bring readers into focus with The Idiot as he circumnavigates the world’s largest inland sea.
