Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Very good. Light offsetting. Size 14.75 x 16 Inches. A colorful representation of the Caribbean and South Florida focused on Cuba created for the Scientific American Navy Supplement . It was produced during the Spanish-American War and was distributed to help readers understand the geography of the conflict. A Closer Look Cuba is displayed divided into its provinces, which are color-shaded for easy distinction. Major cities and junctions are circled and shaded differently than their surrounding province for contrast. Railways are noted in detail, including a military railroad running north-south in the center of the island (Trocha de Júcaro a Morón), along with roads, rivers, mountains, and the dividing lines between dioceses. Florida, the Bahamas, and other surrounding islands and features are depicted. Three insets appear: one each focusing on Puerto Rico and Havana, with the inset third inset at top-right providing a more expansive view of the Caribbean. The Spanish-American War The Spanish-American War was fought between Spain and the United States from April 21, 1898, to August 13, 1898. The war started after the USS Maine suffered a massive explosion and sank in Havana Harbor. Tensions had been rising between the two countries for some time, with the U.S. showing support for Cuban independence while Spain claimed Cuba to be a province of Spain. The U.S. forces quickly outgunned and outnumbered the Spanish, who surrendered after minimal conflict. After the fighting ended, the U.S. received the Philippines, Guam, and Puerto Rico along with Cuba as a U.S. protectorate. Publication History and Census This map appeared in the Scientific American Navy Supplement No. 1165 in 1898. It was produced by Colton, Ohman, and Co., a descendant of the firm founded by the great 19th-century map publisher Joseph Hutchins Colton. The map is noted in OCLC as among the holdings of twelve institutions worldwide. References: OCLC 29892828, 84156713.…
