  Lee vs. Ravenstein   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Ravenstein and Everett S. Lee both were wonderful writers of their respective time periods and they did as best as they could using the resources available to describe the migration patterns of people.
Ravenstein was the first of the two men to attempt in recording migration.
Ravenstein also pointed out that there were certain obstacles that had to be overcome when it came to migration.

 CSISS Classics - Ernest George Ravenstein: The Laws of Migration, 1885.
Ravenstein's basic laws, and additional laws subsequently derived from his work, continue to serve as the starting point for virtually all serious models of migration patterns over a century later.
In addition to the basic trends, Ravenstein was also able to use the birthplace information to determine that significant "counter-currents" of migration existed.
Although Ravenstein's paper only focused on information gleaned from surveys within the United Kingdom, he made the bold jump of formulating from his observations a series of seven "laws of migration", although some of his laws encompassed several assertions that were later divided into additional laws.

 Atlas des Deutschen Reichs
The Atlas des Deutschen Reichs by Ludwig Ravenstein is relatively rare in libraries of the United States.
A special feature is the marking of the locations of churches on all of the maps as well as one special map with an accompanying table giving statistics on the religious denominations found throughout the German empire down to the Regierungsbezirk and Kreis governmental units.
Due to large file sizes and the tiling of the original maps, on-line version of Ravensteins Atlas des Deutschen Reichs is not well-suited to browsing.

 Martin Behaim's 1492 'Erdapfel'
Ravenstein's text and positioning of countries and landmarks appeared to be accurate; however the visual appearance of his globe was sadly very different from the original.
Ravenstein found that these sources led to 'a few sins of commission and omission' on Jomard's Globe in comparison to the original.
Ravenstein's Gores are probably one of the finest pieces of cartographic editing undertaken.
