Looking for Atlas with Ancient Maps

I had one years ago from the National Geographic Society . . . see if it helps to do an online search for them . . .

Haven't found the book that you wanted yet. I think that you might have some interest in this site, though:

I don't think I've found it either, but wanted to drop a link to the closest I got:

National Geographic Atlas Of World History

I have a historical atlas set, six volumes...from the dawn of time til now....but I can not think of the title...horrible with titles....anyway, it's a contemporary set, so it does not contain any reprints of ancient maps or that type of thing, but I enjoy the books, mainly because of the ease of use...really nice little books, I'll see if I can track them down.

I did finally run across an atlas that I've had my eye on for some time, but was waiting for the price to fall...The Official Military Atlas Of The Civil War. I believe that it started off in the 75.00 range, and I picked it up for a little over 20 bucks. I do this quite often, and sometimes I lose the book in question...wait a bit too long, but it's the price I pay for being frugal. In the case of the Military Atlas, it was hard for me to justify spending 80 dollars {with tax} on what is, albeit a very nice book, but yet basically a supplemental text.

There are some histories of cartography published containing a lot of ancient maps.

The ones I mentioned earlier...

That is the first of the series, Ancient World 4,000,000-500 BC....followed by

Classical - 500 BC - 600 AD
Medieval - 600 - 1492
Early Modern - 1492 - 1783
19th Century - 1783 - 1914
20th Century - 1914 - 1999

I've yet to run across anything better.
