Hello! Just found this channel. Amazing. Could anyone recommend online resources of historical maps. I'm from Nova Scotia, Canada so the Atlantic region and Canada is of the most interest to me but any resources for the rest of the world also welcome. My map of Halifax Harbour. Sorry for the quality. submitted by /u/closedfocus [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
