"St. Paul's Precinct and the book trade to 1800" by James Raven in "St Paul's, the Cathedral Church of London 604-2004," Yale University Press, 2004, pp. 430-438. isbn 0 300 09276 8 Not an appropriate book for a map library, but certainly it belongs in any general research library, theological library, English studies library. James Raven has other publications in London book history if you are seeking the context in which our mappy folk worked. Enjoy. Alice C.
