From the introduction: "Between these covers you will find maps that can be carried in a case, slipped into a pocket, folded as a handkerchief, or used as a board game or playing cards. All of these maps a…re separately published, nearly all are uncommon, even rare, and many are extremely decorative, but what fascinates most is the sheer number of different purposes for which they were devised. Often these maps are the documents that travellers would have taken with them, or are mementos or reports of great journeys." Verso of title-page slightly marked, otherwise Near Fine.
