1853Carta del Mondo in proiezione mercatoriana, in due fogli, tratta dal Family Atlas. Questa mappa dettagliata presenta una notevole quantità di informazioni. Gli Stati Uniti sono mostrati escludendo il sud-ovest e il Texas. Il Texas è stato un paese indipendente dal 1836 al 1845, ma è mostrato qui come parte del Messico. Il confine settentrionale degli Stati Uniti e del Canada mostra il conteso confine per l'Oregon, scendendo fino a circa il 45° parallelo, che riflette le rivendicazioni britanniche in quella regione. La questione fu finalmente risolta nel 1846 con il trattato dell'Oregon che fissava quel confine al 49° parallelo. La regione artica mostra l'estensione delle conoscenze contemporanee, non notando nulla oltre al "Packed Ice" a nord dello stretto di Bering. L'Africa è mostrata con gran parte del suo interno non mappato - quella regione non è stata mappata a fondo fino all'ultima parte del XIX secolo. La Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, o SDUK, fu fondata nel 1826 per fornire informazioni scientifiche e di altro tipo alla classe media e ai lavoratori britannici. This delicately detailed map on two separate sheets presents a considerable amount of information. The United States is shown excluding the Southwest and Texas. Texas was an independent country from 1836-1845, but it is shown here as part of Mexico. The northern border of the United States and Canada shows the disputed border for Oregon Territory coming down to about the 45th parallel, which reflects British claims in that region. This was finally solved in 1846 with the Oregon Treaty fixing that border at the 49th parallel. The Arctic region shows the extent of contemporary knowledge, noting nothing besides Packed Ice north of the Bering Strait. Africa is shown with much of its interior left unmapped - that region was not mapped thoroughly until the latter part of the 19th century. An attractive an informative map surrounded with a keyboard style border. The Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, or SDUK, was established in 1826 to provide scientific and other information to the British middle and working classes. The Family Atlas was published by Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge. The SDUK published several editions of its atlas. Dates I have seen quoted are 1829-32, 1840, 1844, and 1846. In 1848 the SDUK ceased to be active, but works which it had commissioned continued to be published.
