History: A typical English country map which appeared in the New British Traveller published by Alexander Hogg. Most of the maps in this series were engraved by Thomas Conder although a limited number were engraved by Thomas Bowen. The series were issued weekly and consisted of 60 parts and then could be bound into a book. The maps differed in their representation, some were issued with decorative borders (as the one on offer shows), some had blank areas and some were issued having two to four maps to a page. All in all,  this was a rather confusing publication!
Description: The map on offer is a hand-coloured map of Buckinghamshire, showing the roads, rivers, towns and parks.
