The maps and prints on this site are from my personal collection. The ones included here are chosen primarily based upon size as they fit on a standard (consumer) flat-bed scanner. Dates for the pages on the site are from the late 15th century to the 20th with one as early as the 13th century.

It became increasingly time consuming and problematic to offer individual pages with descriptive content for each map and print, so I have transitioned to a simple image browser method that allows me to publish additional content with minimal effort. This represents a clear trade-off for quantity over the additional detail.

The new Maps & Prints section has a more accessible format although less info on each item. The previous section index begins on Maps Page 1. The popular (dedicated) pages have been moved over directly and can be found at the following links:

• A description of The Middle Passage.
• National Geographic goes to war WWI and WWII.
• Dedicated Sebastian Munster page.
• Dedicated Alain Manesson Mallet page.
• A Cosmographia leaf on Prester John.
• A comparison page between two European maps by Baker and Janvier.
