Mapping of the World: Early Printed World Maps 1472-1700 by Rodney W.
Shirley.  $295.00.  720 pages; 20 color pages, rest in black/white.  9-1/4 x
13-1/2" boxed edition.
 
The new edition of this work is due out in January.  I have not seen the old
edition and I was wondering what people thought of the book - was the
earlier edition a quality work?  Is this book likely to be worth the price?
 
Thanks for the help.
