Greenough (George Bellus). A Physical and Geological Map of England & Wales... (on the basis of the original Map of Wm. Smith 1815), Revised and Improved under the Superintendence of a Committee of the Geological Society of London, from the Maps of the Geological Survey of Great Britain, 1836-63 and Maps and Documents contributed by Sir R.J. Murchison, Professor Phillips, Joseph Prestwich, R. Godwin Austen, and others, Published by the Geological Society, July 1865 [but circa 1877], comprising four hand-coloured engraved sheets (on J. Whatman watermarked paper dated 1877) each sectionalised on linen, calligraphic title and table of explanation, few minor spots but generally very clean, marbled endpapers, sheet size of each approximately 975 x 850mm, total size approximately 1950 x 1700mm Scarce. This is the third state of Grennough's map and the first to acknowledge William Smith. Greenough was one of the founding members of the Geological Society of London, and it's first president until 1811. 'In 1808 he first sketched the boundary-lines of the various strata in England and Wales, and in 1810 he travelled over a great part of the country for the purpose of mapping it. At the request of the Geological Society he then, with the help of Conybeare, Buckland, and Henry Warburton, coloured a large scale-map drawn by Webster, and in 1820 published it in six sheets' (DNB). It is understood that Greenough reproduced William Smith's geological map of 1815, and this possibly drove Smith into debtors' prison as a consequence. Published a decade after Greenough's death, this edition was produced by the Geological Society under a committee that included William Smith's nephew, the Professor of Geology in Oxford, John Phillips. This particular edition of the map was the first to acknowledge its connection with Smith in its title. (4)
