The full title reads: ‘Atlas sacer sive ecclesiasticus / inde / ab antiquissimis religionis Christianae propagatae temporibus usqe [sic] ad primordia saeculi decimi sexti, / respectu habito / Judaeorum per totum orbem dissipatorum nec non regionum a gentilibus ac Mohammedannis incultarum / singulis tabulis, / descriptus / a / Joanne Elieser Theodoro Wiltsch / Cand. Rever. Minist.’ A folio volume, with the five maps, each of which is double-page folio, all having borders and boundaries picked out in colours. The maps are preceded by the letterpress, in Latin, on fourteen 4to leaves, with the unpaginated title and prelims on three unpaginated leaves bound in at the front of the volume on one stub; and Wiltsch’s introduction, paginated 1-22, on eleven leaves following on a second stub. A good tight copy, internally in good condition, in worn folio half-binding of brown calf spine and corners, and marbled boards. Each of the five maps is ‘Delineatum a F. v. Stülpnagel’, with the first and fourth ‘Sculptum a Guil. Alt.’, and the last with ‘F. i. B.’ designated as engraver at bottom right. The front pastedown carries the simple copperplate bookplate of ‘Revd. Frederick D. Maurice’, i.e. the Anglican theologian John Frederick Denison Maurice (1805-1872), together with that of Queen’s College, London, of which he was the first principal.
