Excerpt from Pollock's New Guide Through Edinburgh
In addition to the illustrations alluded to, a Plan of the City and Suburbs has been constructed, engraven, and coloured by Messrs. Johnston, whose skill in this department of art is a sufficient guarantee for its accuracy. This Map, which shows the sites of all the principal public build ings of the City and neighbourhood, may be had either bound up with this volume or separately.
In conclusion, the Author of this New Guide through Edinburgh has only to observe, that the Publisher has spared neither labour nor expense, to render his work as perfect and as portable as possible; and he now submits it to the patronage and the support, generally of his fellow-citizens, as well as of those occasional visitors of the City, for whose benefit and convenience it was more particularly undertaken.
