Issue 19 of Cairt, the newsletter of the Scotish Maps Forum, is freely available online at www.nls.uk/media/957280/cairt19.pdf
Amongst the features is an interesting piece looking at whether Blaue copied his famous Scottish maps from Pont or Gordon. Bob Henery of the University of Strathclyde has been having a wee poke around them all using digital cartometric techniques!
