This carto-bibliography of over 1300 Devon manuscript maps
published in two volumes contains details not only of the maps
themselves, extracted from 30 separate repositories in addition to
some in private hands, but also biographical information on the
surveyors who made them, over a third of whom have not appeared in
any national cartographic reference book. There is also an
Introduction which explains the significance of these, mostly
large-scale, Devon maps and how they fit into the national
cartographic picture. The detailed list of maps is arranged in
alphabetical order of parish for ease of reference and there is a
Personal Names index. There are coloured illustrations of some of
the maps and the two volumes will be presented in a slipcase. The
volumes will be an indispensable reference tool for all interested
in the social history, the landscape and archaeology of Devon.
