Abstract
This dataset comprises 581 images of maps of the former British East Africa created between 1890 and 1940 and a spreadsheet of related catalogue records. All Open Government Licence v1.0 (OGL). A user-friendly geographical search index of the maps is available on Google Maps. These JPEG files were converted from TIFF files using Irfan view. They relate to maps of the former British East Africa held in the British War Office (1890-1940).
