Robert Miller (fl.1810-21) was a publisher and bookseller who was behind only this one cartographic item. The maps were first issued as an exceedingly rare set of cards by Thomas Crabb c.1819. Following this first atlas edition of 1820 it was published as Darton’s ‘New Miniature Atlas’ c.1822. The plates in lithographic form were later used to illustrate Reuben’s Rambles, 1844. Provenance: Bookplate of Roy H. Johnstone; Sotheby’s 20.9.01 lot 35. Beresiner p. 154; Chubb 340.
