A re-engraved and revised version of of the map issued by John Cary in 1806 which in turn, was a re-engraved version of his 1789 map. All were issued under the title of Cary's Traveller's Companion, a highly successful work necessitating the re-engraving of worn plates to continue publication. The map was later published by Crutchley in his Railroad Companion of 1862 printed by lithographic transfer.
 
Good example of the intaglio printed version of the map in original hand colour published 1822-28.
