1867ref. s02256Washington D.C: Government Printing Office 1867. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Brown pebbled cloth boards with blindstamped rules; 9" tall; 151 pp plus large folding map. Good condition with wear to spine ends of corners of boards; map itself in very good condition colors bright folded properly modern tape reinforcement at creases. -- The "Map of the United States and Territories" by Joseph S. Wilson was one of the largest and most accurate maps of the country published at the time. It clearly marks major Native American territories and the colored mineral deposits show a clear rationale for expansion to the West. Joseph Wilson was Commissioner of the General Land Office both before and after the Civil War and this map was produced during the first year of his second tenure. The accompanying report asserts the United States' right to possession of the Western territories and states encourages the population thereof and admits to continuing arbitration land claims especially in California.

1891ref. List3031Lynn Massachusetts: Arthur W. Robinson 1891. Nine of a ten-map series mostly measuring 14 ½ x 19 inches. Folded with slight marginal folding and wrinkling; Near Fine. Nine of a set of ten maps of the entire state of Massachusetts produced in 1891 for the League of American Wheelmen. The League was founded in Rhode Island in 1880 as a membership organization for cyclists. Besides presiding over racing and producing cycling guidebooks it advocated for increased government spending on road improvements especially for rural roads; these maps indicate roads of superior and inferior quality. In the 1890s there was a boom in cycling’s popularity mainly because of several inventions that allowed a safer and more pleasant ride compared to that of a penny-farthing. This group is near complete; we find two complete editions on OCLC. Arthur W. Robinson unknown

A picture of this book is available upon request by email. Sabin 38488. A French-Spanish expedition was sent to South America in 1736, to measure a degree of latitude in the area near Quito where the equator crossed, to determine the size and shape of the earth. The ten year expedition proved that the earth is flattened at the Poles. La Condamine returned by crossing Brazil via the Amazon. His narrative of his journey was of great importance, because for the first time the long course of the Amazon was traversed by a man of science capable of making astronomic observations, and determining longitudes.' [Borba de Moraes, I, 447] The fine engraved map of the Amazon and its tributaries accompanying the text was drawn by La Condamine himself, and is the first map in which the latitudes were observed and shown on the map. Cox ii, 273: 'La Condamine returned to the east coast of the continent by descending the Amazon, the first time it was accomplished by a scientist'. Hill 169: 'the greatest geographical event of the eighteenth century as regards South America. . . to measure one exact degree of meridian to determine the dimensions and shape of the earth. . . the work occupied eight years'. Goodman 495: 'A very useful abridgment of this indispensible work, entirely satisfactory for nearly all purposes'. Spain & Spanish America I, 369.
