~ John Bartholomew, Edinburgh was one of the finest cartographers in Great Britain. The detail in this map showing Europe and environs at the start if World War One is impressive. Insets include Copenhagen, Gibraltar, Hamburg, Berlin, Petrograd, Dardenelles and Gallipoli. The interest in the latter indicates that the map could be dated to at least 1915 or 1916.
