Description:
|
Detailed and large format map of Persia, extending from Caucasus to the mouth of the Indus River. Pinkerton's now rare elephant folio atlas is one of the best engraved works of the period. While lesser known than the more common atlases by Cary & Thomson, it is a superior work, especially in the detail of the maps.
