The chart may look a little deformed but try your hardest to read it. It's deformed because I had made it in Microsoft Word. Comment if you want me to email you the Microsoft Word version.

Please comment if my link does not work and I will find a solution.

Google Maps
            This map is a picture of what David’s journey. I drew out a route (represented by the blue line) of what David might have walked and drove through. Do note that the names of the cities are those that were used in David’s time and they might not have the same name today.
            I chose to create this map because the journey David took was a big part of the story’s plot. If he did not need to travel that long distance the plot may have not been as strong. That is why his journey was a key factor in the book.
           
Chart
            This chart represents David’s journey in more detail than Google Maps. It explains about the encounters David had in each specific city. This enables you to picture David’s journey better. The names of the cities in the chart are also those that were used in David’s time.
            If I did not include the chart David’s route may not have been as accurate as it is now. If it were not included you might not understand what happened in his journey and maybe David had just walked straight through the countries he traveled in.

*          *          *
           
            All the city’s that were included have been took out of the text of the story and also with a little added help of a little research. Not all of the places David went to were mentioned by name in the text. Meaning all the places seen on the map and chart are only the ones that had been mentioned.

  1. I was able to read your chart of the journey. Not set up clearly but since I have read the story I could follow it. The link to the map does not appear to work, so i did not view your map.

    Watch your grammar and spelling. I will evaluate these for both sections when come back and read Part 2.
