Item description from seller

A Complete Body of Ancient Geography by Jean Baptiste Bourguignon d’Anville, published in London in 1819 by James Whittle and Richard Holmes Laurie, represents one of the grand folio atlases of the nineteenth century. Measuring 21.5 by 15 inches, the book includes thirteen engraved double-page maps covering Rome, Gaul, Italy, Greece, Asia Minor and Syria, Palestine, Egypt, Roman Britain, and the western provinces of France, Spain, and Germany. D’Anville, noted for his methodical approach to ancient sources, shaped the way classical geography was studied in his time, and this atlas captures the scale of his vision. The binding has been restored, retaining original marbled boards with rubbing to corners and edges. Internally the maps are clean and sharply printed. Condition: Very Good. Format: Folio, single volume. Collation: complete with thirteen maps. Edition: 1819. Illustrations: thirteen double-page engraved maps. #29430 PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.
