This beautiful miniature map covers present-day Estonia, Latvia, and part of Lithuania. It is fully engraved to illustrate the forests, cities, and villages and is embellished with a strapwork title cartouche and scale of miles. English text on verso, published between 1635-39.

This map comes from the English edition of Mercator's Atlas Minor, which was published under the title Historia Mundi or Mercators Atlas by Michael Spark and Samuel Cartwright. After acquiring the plates to the 1607 edition of the Mercator/Hondius Atlas Minor, Sparke republished the maps with text translated into English by Wye Saltonstall.
