Item Details

Description

Map: United States of America Compiled from the Latest & Best Authorities

Maker: John Melish

Publisher: M. Carey, Philadelphia

Publishing Date: 1821

Size: 17 x 21.375 inches

An important map by the American cartographer John Melish, engraved by Benjamin Tanner, and published by Mathew Carey & Son for Lavoisne's "A Complete Genealogical, Historical, Chronological, and Geographical Atlas" in 1821, 3 rd edition. No American map collection is complete without this map. It shows a detailed view of the Missouri River and the headwaters of the Columbia River based on information from Lewis and Clark's expedition. The new state of Missouri is shown with a straight western border. Michigan Territory includes the eastern part of present-day Wisconsin, which is still a part of the North West Territory. The large Arkansas Territory takes in most of present-day Oklahoma. Texas is a part of Mexico. One of the most interesting features of the map is the river system in the West, near the Highest Peak, where the headwaters of several major rivers all originate within a few miles of one another - Red River of California (Colorado), Multnomah (Willamette), Rio del Norte (Rio Grande), Arkansaw (Arkansas), and the Platte. Great hand color. 1” tape repair to rear at bottom centerfold. ½” tear at top center frame. Couple of small fox spots; very light occasional foxing near top. Overall very good plus.
