A complete set of caricature maps of European countries

A charming atlas of caricature maps of European counties, many referencing the political changes sweeping through continental Europe, with representations of Garibaldi, Bismarck & Tzar Alexander II. The text and verses on the maps were written by William Harvey (1796-1873), a London doctor and journalist, best-known for his book 'London Scenes and London People', 1863. According to the preface the maps were drawn by a fifteen-year-old girl to amuse her sick brother. She has been identified as Lilian Lancaster (1852-1939), who continued drawing satirical maps for much of her life, many under her married name of Tennant.
