This beautiful atlas is the book of the day in the Christmas calendar, ”prepared by Mr. Edward Stanford for the China Inland Mission” (CIM \u5167\u5730\u6703). The full book name is Atlas of the Chinese Empire: containing separate maps of the eighteen provinces of China proper on the scale of 1:3,000,000 and of the four great dependencies on the scale of 1:7,500,000, together with an index to all the names on the maps and a list of all Protestant mission stations, &c<\/em>. It was published in 1908, four years after Edward Stanford (1827\u20131904) had passed away. Stanford took over a stationery and map shop in London in 1853 and developed it into a leading map producer. Stanford’s 1862 ”Library Map of London and its Suburbs”<\/a> is still reprinted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Atlas<\/em> has twenty-two map plates and sixteen index pages, showing the eighteen provinces of the time as well as Xinjiang (Sinkiang \u65b0\u7586), Manchuria (\u6eff\u6d32), Tibet (\u897f\u85cf Xizang<\/em>), and Mongolia \u8499\u53e4. The maps of this atlas are unfortunately often cut out and sold separately today, often at high prices, but our copy is complete. You can see the complete atlas online<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
