BINDING/CONDITION: Marbled paper outer panels.

(65B2C) FIRST PRINTING OF A LANDMARK MAP OF THE WEST AND THE FIRST TO INCLUDE AN INSET MAP OF TEXAS. This monumental wall map was produced by Mitchell the same year as his pocket size map of Texas, Oregon and California "[It is] an important map [depicting] the western political situation on the eve of the Mexican War. A composite map, it judiciously incorporated the recent work of Nicollet, Wilkes, Frémont, and Emory. Both the Oregon Trail and the 'Caravan route to Santa Fe' are included" (Schwartz & Ehrenberg). Wheat adds: "This map represents a great step forward [utilizing] the recent explorations that had bounded and determined the nature of the Great Basin. The Texas claim to a western boundary up to the Rio Grande is here shown, with the northern panhandle extending all the way to the 42nd parallel, following Emory's map of Texas" (Wheat).

In den WarenkorbHardcover. Folding engraved map (17 4/8 x 21 4/8 inches) showing the United States as far west as Indiana Territory, as far south as Florida with 8 insets of the Vicinity of Cincinnati; Vicinity of Albany; Vicinity of the Falls of Niagara; Vicinity of New York; Vicinity of Charleston; Vicinity of Baltimore and Washington; Vicini…ty of Philadelphia; and Vicinity of Boston, with original hand-colour in outline (very browned). 78-page guide. Original blind-embossed tan roan, lettered in gilt on upper cover. Provenance: Several canal routes through Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania, and New York shown in blue ink. First published in 1832, with accompanying text added in 1834, and continuously updated and enlarged. "Internal improvements coupled with the great Irish and German migrations beginning in 1827 led to the production of traveler's guides that depicted roads and their distances, steamboat and canal routes, and lengths of principal railroads. In 1832 Samuel Augustus Mitchell first issued his 'Traveller's Guide through the United States' and complimented it two years later with 'Tourist Pocket Maps' of the different states. These early works and their multitudinous progeny over the next fifty years laid the foundation for the road maps of today" (Schwartz & Ehrenberg, The Mapping of America, page 255).

In den WarenkorbHardcover. Engraved folding pocket map (17 4/8 x 21 6/8 inches to the neat-line, full margins). Letterpress census laid down on the front past-down. Fine folding engraved map with insets of the "Lead Region East of the Mississippi River"; "Falls of Ohio"; "Vicinity of Cincinnati"; and "Vicinity of Detroit", with original hand-co…lour in full (some browing and short separations at folds). Contemporary publisher's red roan, gilt (scuffed). First issued in 1834, and with some changes from that issue: Lake Michigan has been redrawn, the addition of new counties in Indiana is notes, such as Porter, Newton, and Jasper, etc.). Iowa did not become a territory until 1838 and a state until 1844, and is labeled here as Missouri and Wisconsin Territory. Interestingly this map shows the controversial Dubuque lead mining region, including the site of Julien Dubuque's grave. Between 1796, when this grant was confirmed by the Spanish governor of Louisiana, and his death in 1810, Dubuque had succeeded in establishing a monopoly controlling the smelting and shipping of lead from the region, known as the "Mines of Spain". Unable to sustain a working relationship with the local Ioway Indians Dubuque's creditors who succeeded to his rights abandoned the enterprise, and lead-mining rights in Iowa remained in a legal turmoil that lasted until 1853, when the United States Supreme Court issued a landmark decision on the ownership of the Dubuque area mines, disallowing claims based on Julien Dubuque's Spanish land grants.
