The British Library's collection of maps is unrivalled in its historical and geographical scope. Many maps contain extraordinary details of the places they depict — and the way of life at the time of drawing. Illustrations of ships and marketplaces denote trade and money, those of crime and punishment reinforce law and order, and those of buildings, churches and palaces display wealth and patronage. The British Library Pocket Diary 2012 focuses on the interesting details that might often be missed when viewing the map in its entirety, and thereby offers a unique glimpse into the past. Illustrated in colour throughout with a week to a view, the diary is also available in desk format.
