Minimal wear to corners. Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 1999 Large Hardcover. 280 pp. With dozens of rare color maps and other documents, Early Mapping of Southeast Asia follows the story of map-making, exploration and colonization in Asia from the 16th to the 19th centuries.
