Maps of Germany, France and the Isle of Thanet show that James Barclay's Universal Dictionary taught geography as well as words. They were published between 1806 and 1848 in its illustrated editions. Germany appears in different treatments of its territories, alongside Prussia, France, Belgium and Luxembourg, and maps of England and Wales show the railways. The Isle of Thanet is a more decorative local sheet associated with Thomas Moule, and Barlow and Becker are among the other names attached to the mapping.
