Antique Maps of The United States - Connecticut CD: Antique Maps of The United States Connecticut CD |
| Product Description : "This CD offers a fresh perspective on the definition of maps and records the history of Connecticut in manner that is forcefully alluring. Normally, one thinks of maps as a series of lines and topographical features that present an accurate description of the relative size, location and shape of a relevant geographical area. This CD brings together the best cartographic creations of the state from the 18th century. The maps seen here are pretty diverse in nature and content and thus offer a fabulous overview of the state?s political, industrial and civic status at the time. The cityscapes are of particular interest to those engaged in town-planning, engineering, construction and to history buffs as well. Textual assistance helps in identifying the period, geographical location, historic significance and other trivia help in identifying the locales, many of which have undergone a sea change over the years. The eye for detail and penchant for artistic brilliance and accuracy is quite evident in each of these maps. Over and above serving as a progressive historic chart of Connecticut, however, these maps bring into sharp focus the preponderance of early industrial establishment in Connecticut. This CD is a great addition to your collection if you happen to be a collector of antique maps, a history buff or a student researching the history of Connecticut." |
