The John W. Galiardo collections of world maps / Daniel Crouch Rare Books

Catalogue edited by Daniel Crouch, Lucy Garrett, Noah Goldrach, Kate Hunter, Elena Napoleone, and Nick Trimming ; design by Ivone Chao ; photography by Louie Fasciolo.

Booksellers' catalog with reproductions of early maps collected by John W. Galiardo of Elizabeth, New Jersey, a corporate lawyer and vice chairman of a global medical technology company.

Includes a brief history of cartography during the Age of Discovery and extensive historical notes that illustrate the significance of each reproduced map or map segment.

During the Age of Discovery the European inventions of engraving and movable type spread cartographic knowledge by word and image. Other advances in technology, such as compass navigation and improved ship designs, paved the way for global exploration and trade. During the 15th and 16th centuries European cartographers drew on three map-making traditions, Christian iconography, the classical cartographic heritage, and contemporary portolan charts.

Includes bibliographical references (pages 114-115).
