*Remezov's Siberian maps digitized by Harvard*
October 4.
http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/houghton/2010/10/04/early-maps-of-siberia-digitized/
'Early Maps of Siberia Digitized' (by Emilie Hardman for the Houghton
Library Blog).
A post about the recent digitization of the collection of maps by Semyon
Ul’yanovich Remezov in the Houghton Library, Harvard University. They
form part of the Leo Bagrow Collection
<http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:FHCL.Hough:hou00027>, given to Houghton
Library by Curt H. Reisinger in 1956. The blog gives the background to
Remezov's crowning achievement, the /Khorograficheskaya Kniga
<http://pds.lib.harvard.edu/pds/view/18273155>/, the cartographical
sketch-book of Siberia (1696-7).
