Translated from John Speed's "The theatre of the Empire of Great Britaine" the text of which is largely taken from William Camden's Britannica.

The maps are more or less unchanged from the edition of 1611, but printed with a Latin text throughout, doubtless for use on the Continent. According to Chubb this Latin edition is extremely rare and it was not until 1918 that the British Museum obtained a copy. It was printed by Thomas Snodham--Whitaker: The Harold Whitaker Collection... Univ. of Leeds, 1947, p. 19.

Translated by Philemon Holland; maps engraved chiefly by Jodocus Hondius.

Illustrations: 67 double page maps of British counties. Engraved title page and dedicatory leaves. Maps are included in signature collation but not in pagination.
