Mr Selden’s Map of China’, by Timothy Brook

Kannu
Remember how I was talking about the map yesterday from the topkapi palace and how Columbus used it? When we gifted didu her antique map and old indenture agreement?


Here's another interesting map and you can actually see it when you go to oxford. Do remember to go see it and let me know, I'll want to pop up one day to see it as well son.
