161011341London: John Sudbury and George Humble 1610. No binding. Good. THE FIRST REASONABLY ACCURATE MAP OF JERSEY. 385 x 510 mm. with recent outline and wash colour in good condition. The first published state of a quartered map by John Speed displaying the tidal Holy Island Lindisfarne reachable on foot at low tide and the Farne Islands both off the coast of Northumberland. On the right side are the two main Channel Islands of Guernsey and Jersey. This is the first reasonably accurate map of Jersey to be printed. The parish boundaries are marked along with the various waterways each indicating housing along their courses. In addition three windmills are displayed. Guernsey displays no real improvement over that of Gerard Mercator published in 1595 but it does now display its proximity to Jersey. Sark now displays buildings and one windmill which had only recently been built by Hellier de Carteret in 1571. He was the first Seigneur of the island. It was famously decapitated by the Nazis in the Second World War. John Speed 1552-1629 is the best known and among collectors the most popular British cartographer. He was like his father a tailor by trade with a passion for history. On joining the Society of Antiquaries he took his first steps towards the compilation of the atlas that has placed him among the cartographic immortals.In 1611 he produced the 'History of Great Britain' and his atlas the 'Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain' was published to accompany it. The 'Theatre .' was the first atlas of the British Isles ever produced containing sixty-seven maps which in addition to the counties of England and Wales also included general maps of the Heptarchy England in Anglo-Saxon times Great Britain and Ireland England Wales Scotland and the Provinces of Ireland together with maps of the Isles of Wight and Man and the Channel Islands. Preparation for the atlas took several years and the maps are all engraved by Jodocus Hondius in Amsterdam. This example was printed in 1627 the last edition to be published before the death of Speed. Provenance: private Jersey collection. Shirley T.SPE-1e; Skelton 1966; Skelton 1970 7 & 16.

Original antique copper engraving hand colored in outline and wash. John Speed 1551 or 1552 28 July 1629 was an English cartographer and historian. He is alongside Christopher Saxton one of the best known English mapmakers of the early modern period.Speed was born in the Cheshire village of Farndon and went into his father Samuel Speed's tailoring later in life.While working in London Speed was a tailor and member of a corresponding guild and came to the attention of "learned" individuals. These individuals included Sir Fulke Greville who subsequently made him an allowance to enable him to devote his whole attention to research. By 1598 he had enough patronage to leave his manual labour job and "engage in full-time scholarship". As a reward for his earlier efforts Queen Elizabeth granted Speed the use of a room in the Custom House. Speed was by this point as "tailor turned scholar" who had a highly developed "pictorial sense".In 1575 Speed married a woman named Susanna Draper in London later having children with her. These children definitely included a son named John Speed later a "learned" man with a doctorate and an unknown number of others since chroniclers and historians cannot agree on how many children they raised. Regardless there is no doubt that the Speed family was relatively well-off.By 1595 Speed published a map of biblical Canaan in 1598 he presented his maps to Queen Elizabeth and in 16111612 he published maps of Great Britain with his son perhaps assisting Speed in surveys of English towns.At age 77 or 78 in August 1629 Speed died. He was buried alongside his wife in London's St Giles-without-Cripplegate church on Fore Street. Later on a memorial to John Speed was also erected behind the altar of the church. According to the church's website "His was one of the few memorials in the church that survived the bombing" of London during The Blitz of 19401941 . The website also notes that "the cast for the niche in which the bust is placed was provided by the Merchant Taylors' Company of which John Speed was a member". His memorial brass has ended up on display in the Burrell Collection near Glasgow. Wikipedia G. Humble unknown
