520    "Never Lost Again chronicles the evolution of mapping 
       technology--the "overnight success twenty years in the 
       making." Bill Kilday takes us behind the scenes of the 
       tech's development, and introduces to the team that gave 
       us not only Google Maps but Google Earth, and most 
       recently, Pokémon GO. He takes us back to the beginning to
       Keyhole--a cash-strapped startup mapping company started 
       by a small-town Texas boy named John Hanke, that nearly 
       folded when the tech bubble burst. While a contract with 
       the CIA kept them afloat, the company's big break came 
       with the first invasion of Iraq; CNN used their technology
       to cover the war and made it famous. Then Google came on 
       the scene, buying the company and relaunching the software
       as Google Maps and Google Earth. Eventually, Hanke's 
       original company was spun back out of Google, and is now 
       responsible for Pokémon GO and the upcoming Harry Potter: 
       Wizards Unite. Kilday, the marketing director for Keyhole 
       and Google Maps, was there from the earliest days, and 
       offers a personal look behind the scenes at the tech and 
       the minds developing it. But this book isn't only a look 
       back at the past; it is also a glimpse of what's to come. 
       Kilday reveals how emerging map-based technologies 
       including virtual reality and driverless cars are going to
       upend our lives once again. Never Lost Again shows us how 
       our worldview changed dramatically as a result of vision, 
       imagination, and implementation. It's a crazy story. And 
       it all started with a really good map."--Amazon.com.
