Antique Maps of The United States - Michigan CD: Antique Maps of The United States Michigan CD |
| Product Description : "This is a great CD. While the title may suggested that it is designed for historians, cartographers and collectors of antique maps, it actually provides a fabulous study for anybody interested in great art. Above everything else, the maps you see on this CD are exquisite examples of art from the late 19th century. Nobody, not even the most casual browser can deny the fact that the intricate detail woven into each of the 45 maps included here is mind-boggling. Just how these artists managed to cram all this information into a single drawing beats me and that is something I have given up trying to figure out. What amazed me most about these maps is the faultless aerial perspective they offer. While you gaze in wonder at the fabulous artistic offering, you cannot help being overawed by the painstakingly neat and orderly planning of each city. The town planners surely deserve loads of praise for such meticulous town planning, which if anything, is futuristic. The details provided by the Mr. SID Viewer are really astounding - you can zoom in on the smallest detail on any of the maps. It?s like flying over the city in a helicopter with powerful binoculars and zooming in on a block and then a street and a building. This CD is a treasure trove of Michigan?s history and is a must have for all those who hail from this great state, who are history buffs and those who claim to be lovers of art." |
