Sorry for posting twice, the previous newsletter had the wrong heading... HL ---------------------------------------------------- Internet Guide for Chinese Studies Newsletter http://www.sino.uni-heidelberg.de/igcs/ignew.htm ---------------------------------------------------- 29 May 2005, reviewed by Hanno E. Lecher New in IGCS - Geography - Maps (http://www.sino.uni-heidelberg.de/igcs/iggeo.htm): South Central China and Tibet: Hotspot of Diversity - Map and Gazetteer Ed./Corp.: The Arnold Arboretum, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, USA. URL: http://www.arboretum.harvard.edu/library/tibet/map.html Language: English. Self description: "Joseph Rock traced his travels for the Arboretum's 1924-1927 expedition in a colorful, hand-drawn map entitled 'Ch'ing-Hai upper Yellow River expedition.' The pen-and-ink drawing was made on ten sheets that when joined form a single, irregularly-shaped map, approximately six by eight feet in size. [...] A gazetteer that references the map and the index is now available as a searchable database."
