Heron - A New Map of Scotland from the best Authorities, 1795
This historic map engraving is from Robert Heron's A New and Complete System of Universal Geography. The work was published in 1796 in Edinburgh by R. Morison & Son.
Robert Heron (1764-1807) was a Scottish writer. He attended the University of Edinburgh in 1780 where he supported his studies working for booksellers. He went to jail as a debtor, but released when he began to write History of Scotland.
Provenance: Bookplate of Richardson of Pitfour; From Library of the Stevenson Lighthouse Engineers
