In folio (46x25 cm); esemplare in buone-ottime condizioni di conservazione. Prima edizione di questa bella carta del centro Italia con fine coloritura coeva che descrive i territori della Toscana, dell'Umbria, delle Marche, del Lazio, della Campania ed una parte della capitanata. Edward Wells, il cartografo che realizzò la stampa, era un sacerdote della Chiesa d'Inghilterra e sostenitore dell'istruzione. Durante la sua vita pubblicò numerose carte, tra cui diversi atlanti del mondo antico e contemporaneo. Wells era figlio di un vicario ed entrò alla Christ Church di Oxford alla fine del 1686. Si laureò nel 1690 e lavorò come tutore nel suo college dal 1691 al 1702. Quindi, si spostò a Cotesbach, nel Leicestershire, da dove continuò a pubblicare i suoi lavori. Dal 1698 in poi, Wells compilò molti sermoni, diversi libri ed alcunbi atlanti. Tradusse anche testi classici e cristiani, aggiungendo talvolta annotazioni geografiche. Le sue “geografie descrittive” non erano opere eccessivamente originali, ma furono molto popolari al suo tempo per la bellezza ed eleganza del tratto. Nel 1701 pubblicò un Trattato di geografia antica e moderna che riscosse un notevole successo e che vide quattro edizioni successive. A quest'opera, seguì una Geografia storica del Nuovo Testamento pubblicata nel 1708, accompagnata da una Geografia storica dell'Antico Testamento edita tra il 1711 ed il 1712. Opera in buone-ottime condizioni di conservazione.

Second edition, corrected and enlarged, [8], 242, [8], 40pp., additional engraved title in Latin with allegorical border, laid-down with two closed tears to fore-edge, title lightly stained with a couple of marginal chips, some general age-toning, engravings and woodcuts in the text including one full page, orig. calf, rebacked, joints rubbed, head of spine chipped. Joseph Moxon (1627?1691) established himself as a printer and globe and instrument maker in London. After visiting Amsterdam to study printing, Moxon brought back W. J. Blaeu's handbook of globes, then just published, and translated it into English as "A tutor to astronomy and geography" in 1659. The work was superseded when Moxon published a totally new handbook in 1659, "A tutor to astronomie and geographie". This work was specially designed for an English market rather than Dutch, and became Moxon's most popular work relating to globes. This second edition is corrected and greatly enlarged. A variant second edition which is not listed in Wing, it varies from Wing M3023 in having a separate pagination for the 40-page "Antiquity, Progress, and Augmentation of Astronomie."; ESTC finds 3 copies located at Cambridge, Wellcome and Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin.
