----------------------------Original message---------------------------- I have two requests for the list this morning. First, I have seen references to MapHist recently. Can someone out there who is familiar with that list send me the information I need to subscribe to it? Second, we have a colleague in Brazil who is requesting information on old maps of Brazil. You perhaps have seen his messages. He is an historian and journalist doing research on early settlements in that beautiful country. He informs me of the difficulty he is experiencing in translating some of the messages he has received. So, those of you who have information that might be useful to him, please send it to me ([log in to unmask]). I can translate it into Portuguese for him. Thank you all for your kindness, Paul R.
