(please see full table of contents and sample illustrations below) This is an INCREDIBLE antique atlas containing 86 ULTRA HIGH RESOLUTION maps and charts from Thomas Jefferys 1771 A general topography of North America and the West Indies. This atlas is so RARE that it is unlikely that you would ever have the change to see one outside of a museum, much less own one, or be able to examine it in such amazing detail. If you have even a passing interest in antique maps this is one collection you will want to own. If you are at all interested in the art of Cartography (mapmaking) or just in studing beautiful maps you wil absolutely LOVE this CD. You can view the maps at MANY times the size of the original in unbelievable detail zooming in to extreme closeness with very clear and sharp clarity. You can pan in all directions at any magnification. It's like being able to examine them under a microscope! The software used for this map collection was developed by the US Government for viewing satellite images and shows amazing details at any magnification. While it is not at all practical to provide a sample of one of the maps at full resolution (it would take the average PC many minutes to download and many more to refresh for each zoom) we have provided a set of six screen shots at increasing magnification to give a feel for just how fine the detail is even at extreme magnification. While it may take a moment to load the screen shots. FROM THE CD THE MAPS LOAD MANY TIMES FASTER AND REFRESH IS ONLY ABOUT 2 SECONDS.

THOMAS JEFFERYS c. 1695-1771 An outstanding cartographer and publisher whose productions ranged from small English county maps to some of the finest maps of the time of North America and the West Indies which are regarded as his most important works.  Many of these maps were published after his death by his business successor, William Faden. He was appointed Geographer to the Prince of Wales and to King George III but while Jefferys enjoyed a excellent reputation for  the quality of his work he failed to be much of a commercial success. At one point he had to be bailed out of bankruptcy during the production of his American atlases. A general topography of North America and the West Indies.
