Robert Laurie & James Whittle. Circa 1794. This map of the middle portions of the United States was issued by Robert Laurie, his partner James Whittle, and his son and successor, Richard Holmes Laurie. Laurie & Whittle was one of the foremost British cartographic firms of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. As the successors to Sayer & Bennett, who published Thomas Jeffery's groundbreaking “American Atlas,” Laurie & Whittle became heirs to a legacy of international cartographic excellence and predominance.
