2) The cusps seem to form most easily when there is a vertical stratification of material, with relatively coarse shingle at the surface and a mixed, impermeable layer a few inches beneath. This can be quite simply explained in terms of the mobility of the material in the swash zone; an underlying impermeable layer reduces the percolation of the swash through the beach and so increases the power of the waves to move the shingle. Further the heape…

THE Great Fire of London changed many lives. John Ogilby, the elderly Master of the King's Revels in Ireland, lost the entire stock of his printing and bookselling establishment in Fleet Street, and had to start business afresh. Fortunately however there was plenty of work to be done. Both Ogilby and his young kinsman and assistant, William Morgan, obtained from the Corporation of London appointments as sworn viewers of the devastated City, in wh…

The English Atlas' of Moses Pitt, 1680-83
term Atlas was borrowed from the title-page of a similar but later publication compiled by his friend Gerard Mercator, and quickly established itself as the general designation of a book of maps. Rather over a century elapsed before the first large general atlas to be launched in England was announced by the London bookseller Moses Pitt from his shop at the Sign of the Angel in St. Paul's Churchyard. It was to be called 'The English Atlas,' a tit…

WHEN the sequence of symbols employed to represent orographical features on a map is studied, it is seen that the reduction of such symbols to the almost meaningless convention current before the intro? duction of modern hachures and contours was the work of the great carto? graphers of the Flemish and Dutch Schools. Many of the maps drawn in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries give a vivid, if rough, interpretation of the relief of …
