Amazing detail on these precise steel engravings. The Southern sheet covers the region from Hyderbad through India to much of Burma and north to the Himalayans to include Bhutan and Nepal. Includes good detail of Ceylon and the Andaman chain. Three detailed insets are plans of Bombay, Calcutta and Madras. The Northern sheet extends through Tibet, Western China and north into Russia.
