For each map there are 3 links: (1) to display the full-size image (2) to display the original webpage, arriving at the top of it (3) to display the original webpage, arriving at the point in the document where the map appears. The date of the map is
given in square brackets where known. Because I do not know the precise
dates for many of the maps, I have grouped them by the works in which
they appeared, rather than chronologically overall. Within each work,
the maps appear below in the same order they appeared in the book. I hope
you will agree this makes more sense by keeping sequences of development
maps from the same work together. |
