Almost 100 years since publication, J G Bartholomew's Survey Atlas
of Scotland of 1912 remains the most recent major Atlas of
Scotland. The Survey Atlas was the second edition of The Atlas of
Scotland, published in1895, and marks a high point in Scottish
cartography. In this limited edition Birlinn reproduces the
complete 1912 edition, which contains a series of 68 plates of maps
and plans, illustrating the topography, geology, climate, and the
historical, political and commercial features of Scotland. In
addition thematic mapping (mammals, birds, reptiles, deer forests,
and languages of Scotland) that appeared in the 1895 edition but
not in the 1912 edition are included. To accompany the Atlas, Chris
Fleet, Map Collection Manager at the National Library of Scotland
writes on 'The Making of the Survey Atlas' and Karla Baker, the
Bartholomew Archive Assistant, provides a biography of J G
Bartholomew. Both essays draw on material recently discovered
within the Bartholomew Archive.
