"The amount of published research in English regarding Peninsular War cartography is less than that in continental languages. The subject certainly merits further study, especially in the areas of the QMG cartographic organization at Horse Guards and at the Lisbon depot, with comparative studies of Spanish, Portuguese and French military mapping. Even such an eminent figure as General Sir George Murray does not feature as he deserves in the military literature, probably because of his lack of military heroics. A detailed biography could throw much light on many aspects of his cartographical work in the Peninsula, thereby offering a more complete knowledge of the role of maps in the British army’s deployment in the early nineteenth century in general, and in the Peninsular War, in particular."

Rui, do you know if I can get a hard copy of this book? I had a quick look on the internet and there are only downloads. The quality of the maps on the download is not very good. Thanks. Mark
