This decorative map of Warwickshire provides detailed information of the county, cites, towns, roads, railroads, canals and parks. The steel engraving includes vignettes of Warwick and Kenilworth castles and an elaborate border with several coats of arms. Thomas Moule was a bookseller and writer on heraldry and antiquities. His well-known series of county maps are the last series of decorative county maps to be published in England and are an important addition to any collection.
