This book offers a comprehensive view of the history of playing cards. The author traces their distribution in India, China, the Middle East and Europe, paying special attention to maps in France and England. Having illuminated the maps of the XVI-XIX centuries, Taylor included many illustrations in his book.
Rev. Taylor wrote a lot about the history of cards. He died while working on this story of playing cards rich in drawings. As a result, the section devoted to magic, shyness and fortune -telling on the maps is somewhat reduced, but from this it does not become less exciting. The company Guild of manufacturers of playing cards, this old -timer of the London City, stores an extensive collection of cards and is still developing, engaged in the manufacture of cards, their collecting, selling and popularizing games
