This handsome map is one of four regional maps of Italy in Thomson's beloved atlas. It spans from Parma south to Gaeta and identifies political boundaries, including the Papal States. Genoa, Modena, Bologna, Pisa, Florence, San Marino, Ancona, Rome, and several other towns and cities are named. Parts of Sardinia and Corsica appear at bottom left. There is excellent detail of roads throughout the region.
