HARDBACK "CHARLES CLOSE SOCIETY," SHIPPED FROM THE UK* Edition: 1st. * Impression: 1st ?* Date of Publication: 2009. * Publisher: The Charles Close Society. * Binding and cover condition: Glossy laminated paper covered boards, Rust red titles to spine & white titles to front. Map and outline of the British Isles to front. No bumps or rubs to corners, edges or to head or tail of spine. FINE (AS NEW).* Jacket condition: No dust wrapper. (Probably as issued.) ND. * Contents condition: PRIVATE COPY NOT EX-LIBRARY. Clean, crisp, tight and bright with no reading wear, no marks to text, slight marks, otherwise no visible faults. FINE (AS NEW).* Illustrations: NONE. * Pages: 698 pp. text. xviii pp. List of collections of maps, chronology, bibliography, index & blank pages at rear.* Description: In choosing the starting date of 1847 for this wide-ranging work, the authors cover the full history of the one-inch engraved map in Scotland and Ireland, while in England and Wales, where publication of the Old Series had been in progress since 1805, Old Series sheets 91 to 110 are included. These latter sheets, north of the ‘Preston to Hull line’, differ from those published earlier, being demonstrably on Cassini’s Projection on the origin of Delamere and based on survey at six-inch or larger scales. Their quarter sheets form the basis of the system of regular sheet lines that would be extended south to cover all of England and Wales as the Old Series was superseded by what became known as the New Series. The book charts the long history of the subsequent editions of the engraved map, culminating in the last sheets in Ireland going out of print in 1999. * A FINE TEXT copy of the 1st./1st. with no visible faults. No dust jacket (as issued).*.
