Description: Stuttgart 1935; 403 pages., softcover, tables, Delving in the Berlin libraries and archives the “Weltgeistlicher” Max Hanke uncovered the hitherto unknown world of Prussian cartography. As he fell victim to the First World War, it took someone else’s efforts, and many extra years, to continue his work and publish his results. A thorough overview in which famous names, like the Schmettaus, appear; that, however, perhaps deserved a slightly more dignified exterior. (code N-44)
