Info:-Kitchin was an important London engraver and publisher who also
held the post of Hydrographer to King George II. His output of atlases
and maps covered a working period of more than thirty years and
included more than a dozen maps of Scotland, this first pocket atlas
and a series of Scottish county maps published in the London Magazine
between 1763 and 1781. His 1745 engraving of John Elphinstone's map of
Scotland marked a notable advance in accuracy, particularly of the
mainland, and the 32 maps of this atlas are all clearly based on this
depiction, with some additional names from Moll. It is interesting to
note that the three maps of the Lothian counties are all noted as
''surveyed by Mr. Adair'' and may be related to the Cooper
engravings of c1735-37.
In 1698, Martin Martin travelled with John Adair on his surveying
expedition to the north west of Scotland. During the summer months,
Adair surveyed the west coast of Ross, Skye and the Western Isles from
Lewis to Uist, producing a journal, seven charts and two sheets of
views of the coasts, which were to form the second volume of
his Description of the Sea Coast and Islands of Scotland.
Martin was factor to Lord MacLeod on Skye and may have acted as
interpreter for Adair. Certainly, he was also involved in the animosity
between Adair and Sibbald, who wrote of Martin's description of the
Isle of Skye, ''It heth him coast much paines & expense, and
John Adair in steed of rewarding him as he promised, heth treated him
scurvily''. A map of St. Kilda accompanied Martin's A Late
Voyage to St. Kilda which was published in 1698. Whether Martin was the
original cartographer of these charts or made use of Adair's
manuscripts cannot be ascertained but this depiction is completely
different from those of Mercator and Blaeu and it was to be
the basis of maps by Moll and Kitchin.
