Install:
Into your Skyrim Data directory or use a mod manager.
Upgrading:
Since these are only books, I never plan on changing the covers and/or locations of the books, you can virtually overwrite the file and it will change to the new text in-game.


Description:
This is a set of four books for Skyrim and one for Solstheim that make small notes and details for all of the places on your main map so you can gather basic information without leaving your game. This does not include extensive notes on cities as there are already in-game books (A Gentleman's Guide to Whiterun, for example) that covers this.

It only uses Skyrim assets and does not require any other expansions even though the text within the books assumes you have all expansions and updates.

It does not include any mods including the Unofficial Patches.

It includes some quest notes including those that you walk right in to, some that do not show in your journal and some special location quest notes. It also includes locations (that they are in that location, not exact directions) for all word walls, all dragon priest masks, all bugs in jars, all Barenziah gems and 22 Solstheim pendants.


Getting them:
There is the four book Skyrim set in The Sleeping Giant Inn in the double bedroom under the table on the floor.
There is the Solstheim book on the Windhelm docks on a rock by a brazier.
There is the four book Skyrim set and Solstheim book in the College of Winterhold, the Arcanaeum, in Urag go-Shub's desk.

You can also open the console and type
help geographica
to get the book codes to add them this way.



Q&A:

Q: Why didn't you include ____?

A: I would prefer to keep it at 4 volumes at 24-ish in game pages each and not make it massive. This includes not mentioning civil war camps, skill books, enemies in each location, major cities and towns and a lot of other stuff.
I'd prefer complaints of it being �thin� than �too bulky to use�.



Q: I found a mistake...

A: Literally spending my evenings after work, abandoning all else including family to do this, I figure I did my best. You can fix your copy if you wish.

Q: Why is Solstheim got more page breaks than Skyrim?
A: Page breaks were used to prevent only a title (CAVES for example) to be at the bottom of a right side page. With many titles have a short number of places this happened a lot in Georgraphica Solstheim and not so much in Georagphica Skyrim.




Q: How is this lore-friendly?

A: No, it really isn't. It assumes someone in the year before Skyrim starts basically did everything already.



Q: Will there be updates?

A: Only if a busy life allows me more time, and the great need is there.



Q: Can I include this in ___?

A: Credit me, link to the mod page, but that is all: I don't need asked as I only compiled this from existing data. Do not upload this mod to Steam Workshop as your own file, and I request that if it is a part of your own mod uploaded to Steam this mod is not more than 15%.
