This message is addressed to those who do not have access to copies of
'Imago Mundi: the International Journal for the History of Cartography'.  If
you do not fit into that category, bask in the warm glow of an indescribable
shared experience - and cease reading.

One of IM's most celebrated features is the Bibliography that Francis
Herbert has produced for 25 years.  IM is the journal of record for the
history of cartography, and Francis's Bibliography has set, and maintained,
the highest standards.

So that you can gain an idea of the unexpectedly dense (and highly useful)
detail he provides, a few samples have been mounted on the IM website at
<http://ihr.sas.ac.uk/maps/imbibsamples.html>.   Besides the entries
themselves, there are also samples of the three indexes, and Francis's
explanatory note on the methodology he uses.

Please take a look at that page, and, if you have not already seen it, the
'Imago Mundi menu' as well.  This gives access to the abstracts of recent
volumes and, should be unable to stop yourself, information about ordering.

Secretary/Treasurer Imago Mundi
