MEIJER, Pieter
Het Graafschap Cornwall Verdeeld in deszelfs ...
Imprint: Amsterdam, 1767
165 x 195 mm., in very good condition.
A very rare map by Peiter Meijer published in "Algemeene Oefenschoole" which was issued in two volumes in 1763 and 1770. The work is a translation of and designed as Benjamin Martin's "Natural History of England", 1755-63. The date of Martin's issue 1757 is found in the imprint lower left. This is the first map in the first volume and curiously misspells Emanuel Bowen as the author as 'Brown'. Hodson Atlases 260; not in Quixley (1966).
