Who were the map historians?
/I’ve been working for a long time on the history of map histories. In the process, I’ve encountered many scholars who have contributed in various ways. To keep them all straight, I’ve made notes about basic biographical details: full names, dates, what kind of scholar they were, etc. It has been confusing to add this information to the works in progress, and the various biographies and obituaries make their bibliographies too long. So, I’ve decided to put them all online here:

It’s an ongoing project, so let me know please if you see errors or if you know of other biographical literature. Thanks!
