Unusual miniature map of Greece, the Aegean, the Greek Islands and eastern Turkey. English descriptive text on the lower margin.
The printing history and the history of the plates for Morden's miniature maps is extremely complicated but this example has been identified as being from the second edition of Morden's "Geography Rectified" issued in 1688.
As with most of Morden's miniatures, the main source for this map is Duval's miniature map from 1660.
