Cloth, 4to, vii, 262 pp, plates, ills. From the blurb: "County Atlases of the British Isles is a new work both in substance and in form. It is designed as an aid to the study of the evolution of the English county atlas by establishing the genetic relationship between atlases, by tracing the history and successive users of map-plates, and by providing descriptions in such detail as to enable loose sheets, single maps, to be assigned to the atlas in which they were originally issued. In the text of the descriptive notices, Dr Skelton breaks away from the older plan whereby all editions of an atlas are described under the first mention, and, instead, enters each atlas under its date of publication with appropriate cross references. There are detailed collations and discussions of the history of 124 atlases. Included also are biographies of map makers and map publishers, a number of tables and 43 full pages of illustrations - all designed to make County Atlases of the British Isles as comprehensive as possible and to facilitate the identification of editions, impressions, re-issues and variants. A section of particular value is that on the history of the English map trade during the Tudor and Stuart periods. This original contribution to the subject is made from systematic examination of original documents such as mapsellers' catalogues and wills. Important too are the three separate, comprehensive indexes: of persons, subjects, and titles." Good in slightly chipped dustwrapper.…

Cloth, 4to, 25 cm, xvi, 132 pp, 52 leaves of plates (some colour). ills. From the blurb: "Mr. Tooley, a recognised authority on the subject, has written this book for collectors of printed maps of Africa, Southern Afnca and the Cape. One of the major problems confronting the collector is that of identifying the maps he collects. In this book Mr. Tooley lists and describes nearly 500 maps in such detail as to facilitate identification. He gives the full title, maker's name - often a short biography - size, date, edition or re-issue, significant internal changes and variations. In addition, as an indispensable visual aid to identification the book contains more than 100 full-page reproductions of maps, six in full colour. The Introduction discusses many aspects of map production of considerable value to the collector. While the emphasis is on maps of Africa, much of the information is of real help in identifying maps of other parts of the world since many of them are from general atlases and the information given by Mr. Tooley is often applicable."
