The First Map of Swaziland, and Matters Incidental Thereto

The first topographical map of Swaziland was produced by A. M. Miller, and published by Stanford's Geographical Establishment in 1896. The map is seen as a product of the geopolitics of south-eastern Africa during the latter part of the nineteenth century. A possible link with the interests of the Royal Geographical Society in the area at that time is identified. The copy of the map in the Map Room of the Society, which is in mint condition, is one of the few known surviving copies. One other is in the Swaziland National Archives, and one is in the British Library Map Library
