With a list of the Parishes. In about 1678 Herman Moll, a German, came to London and worked as an engraver for other publishers in the city. He soon set up his own business publishing atlases and also separate maps of all parts of the world. His work was varied, ranging from miniature maps to large, very decorative wall maps. This attractive map of Jamaica was published in Moll's "Atlas Minor". The work was first issued in 1729 with this particular map coming from an edition of c.1755.
