Among the identified 16th and 17th Century European maps the book includes works by Martin Waldseemuller, Sebastian Munster, Gerardus Mercator, Abraham Ortelius, and others. In assembling the cartographic treasures in this book, Rouben Galichian has obtained maps from the British Library, the British Museum, the Biblioteque National de France, Osterreichische Nationalbibliothek, Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, the Library of Congress, the University of Bologna, the John Rylands Library and other sources.
