First issue of the ‘Enlarged, improved and adapted’ B. B. Woodward edition with plans of both Oxford and Cambridge. Thomas Moule (1784-1851) was a noted historian, map seller and publisher. His finest work is the ‘English Counties Delineated’ first published in 1837 following its issue in parts from May 1830 to the spring of 1836. The publisher was George Virtue who used the same beautiful plates in his publication of Rev. James Barclay’s Dictionary. The maps are considered the most attractive of all the later English county maps.
