ex ‘Cary’s Universal Atlas’. John Cary (c.1754-1835) was one of the most successful map and globe publishers of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Cary was the first map maker to use Greenwich as the meridian. The clarity of his style sets him apart from the competition. This map of the British Isles with an inset of the Shetland Islands is in the first state. Phillips 714.
