Putnins of Latvia in 1934 SHOULD READ Presented by Karlheinz Wagner of Germany in 1932 UNDER Similar projections Wagner IV projection (1949) SHOULD READ Putnins P2' Equal-area projection (1934) p 62-63, captions for figures 22A and 22B: Putnins P2' SHOULD READ Wagner IV p. 82, UNDER Usage: AFTER maps INSERT , by National Geographic Society for world map after 1988, p. 138, caption: 105 degrees SHOULD READ 10 degrees p. 140, last column, line 8: Equidistant SHOULD READ Equal-area p. 156, UNDER Origin: Heinrich Berghaus (1797-1884) SHOULD READ Hermann Berghaus (1828-1890) p. 171, caption: DELETE with national boundaries p. 175, UNDER Graticule, AFTER Parallels: Parallel straight lines equally spaced on the meridians 90 degrees apart from center SHOULD READ Circular arcs equally spaced on the central meridian and on meridians 90 degrees from center P. 176, DITTO CORRECTION FOR P. 175 P. 191, Caption: 10 degree graticle SHOULD READ 15 degree graticle P. 194, Caption: 10 degree graticle SHOULD READ 15 degree graticle p. 200, UNDER Origin: (1852 - ?) SHOULD READ (1852 - 1921) p. 202, UNDER Origin: Presented by ... 1904 SHOULD READ Presented and named Van der Grinten II by Alois Bludau in 1912 as a modification of Van der Grinten I. p. 203, ditto correction on p. 202, except that II becomes III p. 204, UNDER Origin: (1852 - ?)
