Consider Prisoners of Geography by Tim Marshall. Recommended by 7 sources.

“Brisk, map-led chapters lay out how rivers, mountains, coasts and resources shape national choices; each regional essay is readable, full of geographic anecdotes and strategic sketches. What works best is the clear mental mapping it gives: after a few chapters you start seeing how terrain constrains options. Main limitation is simplification—complex political, economic and social drivers are often reduced to geographic causes—and some material shows its 2016 timestamp. Expect useful orientation more than deep scholarship.”
