"A Literary and Historical Atlas of Asia" by J. G. Bartholomew is a reference work that focuses on the geography and history of Asian countries, likely written in the late 19th century. This atlas serves to depict the vast historical context and cultural significance of the region through maps and various charts. The content is intended to illustrate the development and interconnections between Asian nations and their historical narratives, particularly from a European perspective. At the start of the atlas, the introduction discusses the complex history of Asia, tracing back to Queen Elizabeth's charter that initiated trade in the East Indies. It emphasizes the significance of geography and historical events that shape Asia's present and future, while also acknowledging the region's unique cultures and destinies separate from European interests. The opening sets the stage for what follows: detailed maps and charts reflecting climatic conditions, languages, religions, economic activities, and notable historical events across the diverse Asian landscape, providing readers with a multifaceted understanding of the continent.
