An excellent source for older material, this guide is comprised of 465 entries, and is indexed by place, publisher, and periodical. In the preface, the author states that "It was noticed that many dealer catalogs did not attribute maps from 18th-century periodicals with the same accuracy as for maps from atlases." This excellent booklet is a thorough and well executed resource for these types of maps. First edition. 120 pages. Soft covers.
