The above image shows the path of letters from 1700-1751 in England. Correspondence was coming and going from major cities and within counties. Stanford Uni has created the project Electronic Enlightenment, and you can view the interactive tool to see where letters were going during these years. You can view specific cities or just drag the map around to see paths. There is also an option to select correspondents, whose letters were going where. The project is based on a large sample of correspondence from the period. My favorite option is the flow!
Sadly there are only 2 letters represented for Louis XV's correspondence!
View the project here.
Oh yea, and another project:
jk!
