Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. An oversized volume of 144 pages with black cloth covers and sharp gilt lettering on the spine. The work is printed on high quality paper with much color illustration. The thesis of this book is to bring out something of the wider cultural significance of world maps chosen from different historical periods. A few of the older maps reproduced in this book have survived in unique copies, uncolored in order to re-create something of their original impact. Book is clean and binding is tight. Dust jacket has a cut down the middle of the spine about 2 inches from the top, perhaps from opening the book with a knife. Dust jacket is protected in an archival quality cover and looks quite presentable. Available for immediate shipment, carefully packed in a sturdy box. N° de réf. du vendeur 0011595

Hardcover. Etat : Very Good. Square 4to (28.5 x 27 cm), VIII, 144 pp. Publisher's cloth with dust jacket (minor shelf wear). "For over two thousand years, people have drawn maps to help define the world they inhabit. Each mapmaker's perception of the world has been shaped by the religious, political, social, or economic climate of their time. From the classical Greek origins of the world map to the elaborately decorated manuscript and printed maps of the 17th and 18th centuries and on to scientific maps of the ocean floor, Peter Whitfield explores the history of world mapmaking through 70 outstanding examples. Each map is discussed in relation to its maker and the intellectual context of its time, situating it within the broader history of ideas." (From the blurb). N° de réf. du vendeur 009250
