First edition, second issue of Arrowsmith and Lewis's important atlas, with the correct complement of 63 maps called for in the list of contents (the first issue of the same year incorrectly listed 65). The maps are the same in both of the issues. CONTAINS THE FIRST PRINTED MAP OF THE STATE OF OHIO. The original thirteen states are included, and also the District of Maine, Vermont, Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio (which had been admitted to the Union in 1803), Mississippi Territory, and Louisiana. This complete atlas additionally has maps that cover the known world. "This is a gathering of maps by Arrowsmith and by Lewis. The maps by Arrowsmith are taken from Pinkerton's Modern Geography, London, 1802. Lewis' maps are those of the States and territories. The map of Louisiana is important. The map of Ohio is one of first of state. Wheat, curiously, was unaware of Pinkerton's book." (W. Heckrotte-TW 259). Wheat lists four of the maps included in this atlas and considers them to be significant - Louisiana (Wheat 259), British Possessions in America (Wheat 260), Spanish Dominions in North America (Wheat 261) and North America (Wheat 262) - and says of them collectively "When considered together the four afford a remarkably clear epitome of the knowledge of the West at the moment when Meriwhether Lewis and William Clark were poised for the take-off of their history-making expedition."

Hardcover. 4to., (10 6/8 x 9 inches). Folding engraved double-hemisphere world map, folding map of the "World on Mercator's Projection", and 61 full-page maps (browned, spotted and stained). Contemporary sheep backed formerly marbled paper boards (very worn). Provenance: with the early ownership inscriptions and pen trials of three generations of the Robbins family; given by them to the Scoville Memorial Library in Sausbury Connecticut, with their ink library stamp on the front paste-down. Second edition, first published with fewer maps of America in 1804. Including "the primary map of the newly purchased territory of Louisiana and its surroundings" (Cohen), and making all too clear the limits of geographical knowledge of the country at the time. Based on the apparently solid and experienced cartography of French mapmaker Antoine Soulard, who is given no credit here, the map of Louisiana shows the state stretched almost coast-to-coast, reflecting French pretensions to the territory. The map of the United States extends just west of the Mississippi, which is completely blank except for a rough approximation of the Missouri River up to the 42nd parallel north, approximately. This atlas also clearly portrays the hopes and fears of various competing factions for possession of the North American West. The present mapmakers give some emphasis to British pretensions to the territories shown, while nodding to Spanish and U.S. possessions. In their rather basic form these are the maps that Lewis and Clark relied upon in their explorations, and it was not until the 1814 publication of their report that the inaccuracies could be corrected. With full-page maps of Australasia, Polynesia, North America, the United States, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine, Vermont, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio, Mississippi Territory, Louisiana, British Possessions in America, Spanish Dominions in North America, the Viceroyalty of New Granada, the Government of Caracas, with Guiana, the Viceroyalty of Peru, Chili, the Viecroyalty of la Plata, the West Indies, South America. Aaron Arrowsmith was a prominent English cartographer, engraver, and publisher, who created about two hundred maps during his illustrious career. He became hydrographer to the Prince of Wales around 1810, and to the King in 1820. Samuel Lewis, noted American draftsman, penman, cartographer, and geographer, published both independently and jointly with Arrowsmith. Samuel Lewis "is to be especially remembered as the draftsman who put in form for publication the celebrated map (originally drawn by William Clark) that in 1814 gave to the world its first detailed reflection of the American Northwest, as Lewis and Clark had pictured it" (Wheat, vol. II, p. 5, footnote 3; see also Wheat 316 and 317). Cohen, p. 80. Phillips A-718.…

No Binding. Zustand: Very Good. THE FIRST MODERN SCIENTIFIC SURVEY OF THE PATAPSCO RIVER AND CHESAPEAKE BAY Single sheet (88 x 40 4/8 inches, laid down on linen, trimmed with silk). An exceptionally fine, large and beautiful original manuscript map of the Patapsco River from the City of Baltimore to the mouth of the Charles River in Chesapeake Bay, drawn in black and red ink and colour wash, noting all river outlets, points, and depths, with a long explanatory inscription, and inset of "Loading marks." and "Table of Triangulation". Signed by Sherburne, Brantz and Wirgman. Provenance: Probable gift of Mrs Phillip T. Tyson to the Maryland Academy of Sciences in January of 1878; deposited at the Enoch Pratt Free Library, Baltimore from 1937, with their ink stamp and shelfmarks. A beautiful map of the Patapsco River and part of the Chesapeake Bay, principally to give definitive soundings of the river and the bay, which are meticulously recorded, with a red line indicating the "loading marks and ranges used for ships of heavy draft .". These soundings were made by Sherburne, a surveyor with and a Lieutenant in the US navy from about 1813-1827. The survey was conducted by Lewis Brantz, a local merchant, who had travelled extensively and published a memoir of his travels in the western states of America: "He devoted himself, for a long time, to surveying the Patapsco river, its branches, and part of the Chesapeake Bay; the engraved map of which is now found, by expert seamen, to be the best that has hitherto been prepared" (Carnegie Library Pittsbugh). He was instrumental in achieving the building of Maryland's first lighthouse project, recommending that lighthouses be place at the mouth of the Patapsco River at Bodkin Point, North Point and Sparrows' Point. He was president of the Philadelphia and Baltimore Railroad, which he helped to complete in January of 1838, after which he died suddenly. (Monthly Bulletin of the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, volume 22, 1917). [WITH:] SHERBURNE, Jonathan W. (fl. 1813-1827), BRANTZ, Lewis (1766-1838), and WIRGMAN, Charles (1781-1821). This Survey of the River Patapsco and part of Chesapeake Bay Instituted by the Marine Insurance Companies of Baltimore and executed at their expense, under the direction of Lewis Brantz, is respectfully dedicated by them to James Monroe.
