Original half maroon leather, maroon decorative cloth, simple spine rules and title in gilt; joints cracked (but holding), extremities & corners showing. Good +. PROVENANCE: P. Patton Milne, 12/12/1902; William Hutton Stewart, 2nd May, 1960. With the color folding maps in excellent condition. "Under his administration the family business became one of the top operations in its field. Bartholomew himself was not merely a specialist in production, but also a talented geographer and cartographer. It was he who introduced the use of coloured contour layer maps developed by his father . . ." The maps are here all printed in colors and the maps are all well researched and presented for this purpose. J.G. Bartholomew was a founding member of the R.S.G.S. As a holder of a royal warrant, he used the title "Cartographer to the King"; for this reason, he was sometimes known by the epithet "the Prince of Cartography". / "Bartholomew gave much thought to the perfecting of the technical processes of map-production as well as to the planning of new geographical works; and by keeping in touch with the latest progress of discovery and research he avoided the tendency of some map-makers to content themselves with following in the footsteps of their predecessors. The two great atlases of Scotland and of England and Wales, published in 1895 (second edition 1912) and 1903 respectively, are among the most important of his works, embodying an immense amount of geographical and statistical research . . . Bartholomew's work as a map-maker is distinguished both by accuracy in detail and by skill in craftsmanship; but his most important contribution to the science of cartography was his extension and improvement of the system of layer colouring for marking contours, a system by which his maps attain a high degree of delicacy and effectiveness. His skilful use of colour for other purposes, as for instance in population maps, is also noteworthy." â" DNB. PROVENANCE [2]: [1] P.
