Pont's drawings, after his death about 1614, were purchased by the crown. Scott caused them to be revised by Sir Robert Gordon of Straloch and his son, James Gordon, parson of Rothiemay, and then went in 1645 to Amsterdam to superintend their publication, dictating from memory the description of several districts. The work was not issued till 1654, when it appeared as 'Geographiæ Blaeuaniæ volumen quintum,’ with dedicatory epistles to Scot both by Blaeu and Gordon of Straloch.
Pont's sketches, following his passing around 1614, were acquired by the royal family. Scott then had them revised by Sir Robert Gordon of Straloch and his son James, a clergyman, before he traveled to Amsterdam in 1645 to oversee their publication, recalling from memory descriptions of several districts. The work was not released until 1654, when it appeared as 'Geographiæ Blaeuaniæ volumen quintum,’ with dedicatory letters to Scott both by Blaeu and Gordon of Straloch.
