In 1814, John MacCulloch was appointed to begin a geological investigation along meridian lines in Scotland, to find a more suitable mountain than Schiehallion to calculate the Earth's mean density. He used this opportunity to geologically survey Scotland, and in 1821 applied to the Board of Ordnance to publish his map. Nothing came of this, despite his threats to hang or shoot himself if he didn't get his own way. Map size: 74cm x 93 cm. Flat only.
