A large map of the Yukon District of Canada, bordered by Alaska, British Columbia, and the Pacific Ocean. This is Map 87 from Stanford's London Atlas Series, published by Stanford's Geographical Establishment. Edward Stanford (1827-1904) was a British publisher and cartographer, and founder of Stanford's Ltd. In the mid 1850's, Stanford founded his business in response to rapid British colonial expansion and the demand for accurate, high-quality, and accessible maps that resulted. As well as producing his own maps, Stanford also reprinted a number of other series, including the popular maps of principle cities by the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge. Stanford's son, also named Edward, succeeded his father in 1884. |
