A propos de cet article

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; Vicinity 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.

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).…
