The most common form of the question, in both British and American dialects is "Do you have...
" Using "Have you" is a non-typical use.
It sounds old fashioned.
For example there is a nursery rhyme which goes: Baa baa black sheep,Have you any wool?
There is a similar form "
Have you got a map".
This is quite common in some British dialects, but is frowned on by some teachers.

The syntax of have you something ?
gets used in BrE and possibly formal and literature situations.
It is a direct syntax copy from the French avez vous?
Many things French had great influence on the English as they are neighbours.
A couple contemporary examples of the phrase which are often used Have you any thoughts...
Do you have an opinion about...
Have you got the time?
Do you know what time it is
Other equivalents "have you" might be
Do you have?
Would you have?
Might you have?
(BrE)

This form of question is using non-auxiliary "have" with an auxiliary verb syntax .
It is somewhat dated, but is still used in some occasions, mainly in formal speech.
A well-known example is the phrase "Have you the ring?"
used in wedding ceremonies.
It is also more common in some dialects.
According to Google ngrams , this form was dominant in writing in the past. "
Do you have" became dominant very quickly since the early 20th century.

Both are correct except no. 2 is a little more old-fashioned or fancy because it doesn't use the auxiliary "Do".
I disagree somewhat with BillJ insofar as I do not think "Have" is acting as an auxiliary verb in your example above; I just believe the writer is using an old-fashioned way of forming a question by way of inversion without the periphrastic "Do": "How much spent he ?"
= "How much did he spend ?"
"How much knows he ?"
= "How much does he know ?
"
I would agree with BillJ that "Have" is acting as an auxiliary verb if it were written in question form using the present perfect: " Have you ever had an English book?
"
In this instance, one could not use a periphrastic "Do" since the present perfect construction already uses an auxiliary verb in "Have", but that's not the case in, "
Have you an English book?
", wherein it is clear that it is merely inversion of a lexical verb to form a question—a process that is a wee bit outmoded these days, but is still used from time to time, particularly with the verb "Have" as used in the question above.
I hope that might have helped you out.
Take care and good luck!

There are two forms to express possession in English.
Have or Have gotDo
you have a car?Have you got a car?He
hasn't got any friends.
He doesn't have any friends.
She has a beautiful new home.
She's got a beautiful new home.
While both forms are correct (and accepted in both British and American English), have got (have you got, he hasn't got, etc.) is generally the preferred form in British English while most speakers of American English employ the have (do you have, he doesn't have etc.)
Have you got a map? =
Have you a map?

"Have you a map?"
This is an example of subject-verb inversion that was more common in older forms of English than it is today.
I still sometimes say, "Have you the time?" to mean, "Do you have the time?"
but many people in Modern English find it stuffy or pedantic or archaic.
Last week, I said to my brother in a text message, "
What said he?
" to mean, "What did he say?
" I was being lazy and didn't want to type out the periphrastic way that we write it now, but it caused confusion because my brother replied, "Huh?"
I just rolled my eyes and typed it the normal way for him.
We still see this subject-verb inversion in questions when people say, "What say you?" to mean, "What do you say?"
In French, this is also pretty old-fashioned, but still heard from time to time?
"Que sais-tu?"
("What knowest thou?"/"What know you?") "Qu'est-ce que tu sais?
"
("What dost
thou know?"/"What do you know?")
I use "thou" above to show that the French that I'm using is in the second-person singular form of English "you" and not the plural "you".
Also, these inversions were more common during Shakespeare's time when the pronoun "thou" was prevalent in speech still, so one would hear, "What knowest thou?"
way more often than a periphrastic form using "do/did" in questions.
Notice that the French have gone to a periphrastic form as well.
For instances: "Qu'est-ce que tu sais?
"
(literal translation: "
What is it that thou knowest?" or "What is it that you know?")
As you can see, this is relative to our periphrastic "do/did" in questions.

"Have you"when the word 'have' expresses a helping verb, (for example: I have made it.)
we can make it question just by replacing 'have' before the subject (Have I made it?).
And whole the rest sentence will remain same.
In the sentence "I have made it" , 'made' is the main verb where 'have' is just helping it.
"Do you have"when
the world 'have' is used as main verb, (I have a pen)
we use 'do' before the subject to form question (Do I have a pen?).

I've seen it on TV that a guy asking another man, "have you a map?"   If I were him, I would probably say, "do you have a map?"   I would like to know what grammatical rules it followed in this case.
