John Adams (fl. 1680). In 1677 he engraved on copper a map of England and Wales ‘Full six feet square’, the special feature of which was that the distance of each town from its nearest neighbours was entered in figures in ‘computed and measured miles’ But the work was declared by critical friends to be very roughly done, and Adams set to work to improve it. To supply temporarily the many omissions of villages he laboriously drew up, in 1680, the [above work]. This ‘Index’ he reprinted with elaborate additions in 1690, and again in 1700. Meanwhile under the patronage of several members of the Royal Society he undertook a survey of the whole country, in order to make his map as full and correct as possible ... He completed his journeys before 1685, and in that year published his newly revised map. Revised and coloured editions of the map were sold with the second and third editions ...’ GBP 150.00 [Appr.: EURO 164.75 US$ 248.1 | JP¥ 21343] Book number: 196524 Click here to order or inquire at Francis Edwards Booksellers. | ||
