Captain John Smith's 1612 map of Virginia became the “mother” map of Virginia, influencing European mapmakers as they printed maps of the colony for inclusion in atlases. This workshop explores the differences between the states of Smith’s map of Virginia and its many derivatives. Cassandra Britt Farrell, the Library’s senior map archivist, presents this workshop hosted by the Fry-Jefferson Map Society.
