The Rumsey Map Islands

Recently a reader requested the Newser to write up on a unique location in Second Life: the Rumsey Map Islands. The four sim area is an extension of a collection of maps by David Rumsey, the resident of the Cartography Associates company in real life. Rumsey began his "David Rumsey Collection" on the Internet two decades ago as a database and blog that today has thousands of maps, mostly from the 18th and 19th Centuries. Deaflegacy went to check out the location and there was quite a lot to see in this spot on the Second Life map.
