Hi, all,

I'm researching the history of the Office of Strategic Services (OSS) maps in order to learn more about our collections.  I've been searching for papers on this collection specifically and have yet to find a good article about the map production themselves - why, how the topics were chosen, etc.  Anyone know of work in this area?  I'll keep searching, too, but thought I'd ask the collective mind.   Thanks!

Best,

Julie
