He spent much of his time travelling and collecting material for his highly respected 'Britannia'. This is engraved by William Kip and is from the first fully illustrated edition of William Camden's classic work, this example from the preferred second edition without text to the verso. Chubb 18; Evans (1964) MCC no. 13 p. 6; Shirley BL T.Camd 1b; Skelton 5; STC 4508; Taylor 'Late Tudor and Early Stuart Geography' pp. 9- 13.
