Description
Detailed chart of Biscay Bay, showing the Coast of Brittany. The chart is oriented with north-east at the top and includes two large insets of the Loire River with Nantes and the complete coast of Brittany.
Mount and Page was a firm of religious and maritime publishers that flourished in the 18th century. The name became well-known worldwide as an imprint of nautical charts.
The firm was founded in 1701 by Richard Mount (1654–1722) and Thomas Page. Mount had previously been in partnership with his father-in-law William Fisher (1631–1691) and inherited the business on the latter's death.
As Mount & Page the firm flourished throughout the 18th century and made the fortunes of both families, helped by government contracts.
Successive generations of Mounts and Pages worked in the business, and the families intermarried. One of its staple titles was Navigatio Britannica by John Barrow, published in 1750 and still being advertised in 1787
