Description
A large map of the British Isles, surrounded by a very decorative border filled with panels of text, including important events, descriptions of the home countries and the counties of England. Just inside the border are the branches of a family tree of the British monarchy, starting with the Saxon kings and ending with the children of Queen Victoria, and tables of mountain heights and river lengths. Two vignettes depict the queen's crown and the Prince of Wales's feathers.
