Widely regarded as a model of its kind, this book, which took eighteen years to prepare, catalogues the printed County maps of Bedfordshire from Christopher Saxton (1576) to the Ordnance Survey of 1901. It also describes the town plans for Bedford, Leighton Buzzard and Luton for the same period. The complex history of different editions of maps is discussed and explained, making the book an indispensable work of reference for collectors, dealers and local historians. One of the most detailed maps discussed, Jeffery's map of 1765, has been reprinted by BHRS.
