Abstract
ALL these maps, even including the sixteen in the “Primary Atlas” which sells for sixpence, are printed in colours; their engraving is of a high order, the maps being rendered clear by a judicious omission of names. It would have been better for the young student if the boundaries between States, e.g., Turkey and Greece, had been made more decided in the “Advanced Atlas.” Great care has been taken in many cases, Africa for instance, to introduce the most recent discoveries.
The Advanced Atlas:
consisting of Thirty-two Maps, containing all the Latest Discoveries and Changes in Boundaries; The Progressive Atlas: consisting of Thirty-two Maps—and The Primary Atlas: consisting of Sixteen Maps. All constructed and engraved by J. Bartholomew. (William Collins, Sons, & Co. Glasgow, Edinburgh and London.)
