Hardcover. Condición: Fine. 4to (28 cm), 295 pp. Publisher's cloth with dust jacket (minor shelf wear). "The aim of this book is to inform the map collector at every stage of his quest. Thus, in addition to a brief history of map development, a section on the formation and care of a collection, and a discussion of reproductions and forgeries, the bulk of this work is devoted to answering the map collector's perennial question: Who made the map? There is no standardisation whereby a map is always known by, for example, its surveyor, engraver, or publisher, and the difficulties created by such multiple involvement are often compounded by other factors. It is precisely these confusions that British County Maps sets out to clarify. This is the first time such vital information has appeared in so lucid a format, with one hundred biographical entries, many featuring detailed cross-references to associated names, and 270 illustrations to assist in identifying maps and editions. This book, which includes an appendix on prices, is an extremely valuable source of reference as well as a fascinating account of the cartographer's art in Britain from the sixteenth to the nineteenth century." (From the blurb).

Cloth, 4to, 29 cm, 295 pp, ills, maps (some colour). "The aim of this book is to inform the map collector on every stage of his quest. Thus, in addition to a brief history of map development, a section on the formation and care of a collection, and discussion of reproductions and forgeries, the bulk of this work is devoted to answering the map collector's perennial question: Who made the map? As many as up to twelve operations may have been required to produce a map: between the patron and the mapseller there may have been a surveyor, a cartographer, a designer, an engraver and a publisher. There is no standardisation whereby a map is always known by, for example, its surveyor, engraver or publisher, and the difficulties which such multi- involvement creates are often compounded by other factors: any of the original individuals might well have given the map the date at which he was involved with it, in some cases years after its inception; individual maps from atlases were serialised in magazines or newspapers, in which case other imprints and dates may have been substituted; original map plates passed on or sold from one engraver to another were slightly amended, sold again, amended again, and so on, often acquiring new imprints and dates along the way. It is just these confusions that British County Maps sets out to clarify. This is the first time such vital information has appeared in so lucid a format, with one hundred biographical entries, many carrying detailed cross- references to associated names, and 270 illustrations which will assist in identifying maps and editions.
