Virginia in Maps: Four Centuries of Settlement, Growth, and Development

Virginia in Maps: Four Centuries of Settlement, Growth, and Development by Library of Virginia. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780884901914.

Virginias long and rich history is documented by thousands of maps that trace the discovery, settlement, expansion, and growth of the commonwealth, yet no comprehensive atlas of the entire state has ever been published. Virginia in Maps fills that void, providing access to more than 200 color images of the most important maps of the colony and of the state in a single, large-format volume. The atlass five essays by leading cartographic scholars will make it an essential reference and educational tool.
