Edward Langley (fl.1802-1835) was an established publisher and bookseller. He was also a printer and engraver. Joining forces with William Belch early in his career they would publish Langley's New County Atlas of England and Wales in 1818. The maps are variously dated between 1816-18. Each has an attractive vignette adorning the map. This example of Hertfordshire is in the second state bearing the imprint of Joseph Phelps and was issued in the second edition of 1820.
