This extraordinary facsimile atlas is a faithful copy of Ortelius's epochal work, the first modern atlas. It includes all 53 of the maps in the first edition, in old-style color with Latin text on the versos. All of the double page maps are tipped in and pasted to binding strips. Hardbound in red cloth boards with red leather spine, gilt titles on spine and covers.
