Lewis Carroll describes a fictional map that had:
"the scale of a mile to the mile."
A character notes some practical difficulties with such a map and states that:
"we now use the country itself, as its own map, and I assure you it does nearly as well."
— Sylvie and Bruno Concluded, Lewis Carroll, 1893
