For all following along at home, the PostGIS Cookbook is complete!  At 484 pages it’s a tome– but a great one (It’s been out for a few days, actually).

A shout out to my brilliant co-authors, Paolo, Bborie, and Tom. I could not have hoped for better.

And for any who wonder, the picture on the front is of the Maumee River, the largest tributary to the Great Lakes.
