Dealer Notes
A single edition atlas, specially produced in the wake of the Great Reform Act
of 1832, showing the redrawn boundaries to towns, cities and counties. It was issued as volume five of
Lewis's Topographical Dictionary which included only an earlier set of country maps, though as here volume five has
a completely independent existence. Historically valuable and an excellent copy of a work all too
often broken up.
