The JAGIS-L mailing list lead me to the Mapping History website of the British Library. From the introduction: "You may think of maps as realistic, factual illustrations. While some maps deliberately set out to deceive, others simply show a selective view and reflect only the interests of the people who made them. This collection is a reminder that there is often more to a map than meets the eye."
