Welcome to MapHist.com Article Manager.
Many carto-bibliographical books have been made to present the
mapping history of a country or province, and innumerable
illustrated books have been published dealing with every aspect of
historical cartography. All have one in common, as soon as such
a book is published, its content is already
outdated. After publication the author is getting numerous
reactions, additional information and often unknown variants are
turning up. Ironically the author can only update his publication
when a re-print is
published.
