From the blurb - "In Maps and Map-Makers Mr. R. V. Tooley, who is well known as an authority on the history of Cartography, has written the first general work dealing with the whole subject. From the earliest beginnings of Cartography down to the mid-nineteenth century Mr., Tooley traces the development of Map-Making, combining an appreciation, of the popular decorative side of old maps with historical and biographical notes on individual cartographers and their work. Mr. Tooley traces the history of Maps chiefly through the achievements of the great Map-Makers - mainly English and Dutch, but also belonging to Arabia, Italy, France,* Germany and other countries. Each Chapter deals with the maps of a particular country and after each is a list - of particular value to the collector - giving the most important maps of that country and their dates.

They are over 100 in number and include eight colour plates, numerous half-tone reproductions, and a selection in line of decorative , cartouches, scales, ornaments, etc. Maps of the British Isles are extensively reproduced, and there are also sections on the maps of the Empire Countries and of America."

Cloth, folio, 35 cm, vii pp, 80 plates (most in red and black). From the introduction - "This publication . approaches from an unprejudiced and artistic point of view all the questions concerning the form and use of type of every kind and variety. It excludes no kind of type, and recognises no laws except those of utility and good taste. In the sphere of letters and lettering, as in other lines, rapid development cannot be retarded when once it has begun. For this field is too closely, too intimately connected with the mechanization of production, with the swiftness of exchange and with the necessity of producing novelties, a demand due to the keenness of competition. The more important therefore is the quick eye and careful observation directed to the best examples of the past and present. " An ex-library copy with with a gilt number on the spine, label on front pastedown endpaper, faint stamp, datestamp and number on title-page, spine ends bumped and covers somewhat faded, one or two minor tears, contents otherwise Good.…
