The map as encyclopaedia
This map image was included in James Bryce’s geographical encyclopaedia from 1859—a full 823 pages long and illustrated with ten plates. The book was not merely an atlas: it also served as a guide to the world, where readers could look up places and find help with their pronunciation.
