Title: A New Map of the United States upon which are Delineated the Vast Works of Internal Communications, Routes across the Continent &c. Showing also Canada and the Island of Cuba Author: Williams, W. Place: Philadelphia Publisher: Lippincott, Grambo Date: 1854 Description: Lithographed map, hand-colored in outline. 61.6x74 cm. (24¼x29¼"). Spectacular map of the United States, the main map covering the eastern states to beyond the Mississippi, with large portions of Texas, Nebraska, "part of the North-West Territory," etc. There is a large inset at lower right, "Map of California, Oregon, New Mexico, Utah, &c.," covering those portions not on the main map, and smaller insets of Havana, of Cuba, and of Niagara Falls. The map in its present form was first issued in 1852, and Wheat records that issue and this one of 1854; there were several others. It was apparently separately, bound in a folder, and also came with Wellington Williams' The Traveller's and Tourist's Guide. The present copy of the map is affixed to the front pastedown of a loose front cover of an undetermined work, (possibly A New and Complete Gazetteer of the United States..., by Thomas Baldwin & J. Thomas 1854, also published by Lippincott, Grambo, the presence in which we have observed other copies of the map). Wheat, in describing the map, concentrates on the inset of the West, "which is largely based on Fremont but which carries much up-to-date information..." In California, the Gold Region is named; Utah covers Nevada and part of Colorado, the remainder of which is consumed by Nebraska; Washington and Oregon both extend eastward to the Rockies, beyond which is the aforementioned North-West Territory; New Mexico includes present Arizona, with pre-Gadsden southern border. Wheat Transmississippi 769 & 818. Lot Amendments Condition: A few short splits at folds, very good, bright. Item number: 227850
