Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of the Old Edinburgh Club, 1922, Vol. 11 The next consideration was to determine the preparation and scale of the map. Edgar's published maps were too small for the purpose; later and larger scaled surveys were not accurate enough; and at length it was determined to take the 1851 Ordnance Survey for the basis, and thus to secure accuracy, the earlier surveys of parts altered or cleared away being used to supplement and correct the later. The map thus constructed is over 75 feet long, but it has been reproduced on a reduced. Scale by Messrs. Bartholomew, so that it would not be too bulky for our volume, or unwieldy for the student.
