This is the third issue of the 1857 Rogers and Johnston Map Of The United States (see our #4390) with Mexico added prominently to the title. Many changes in the western states and territories, not only in political boundaries, but also extensive topographical changes. The Peoples Pictorial Atlas of 1873 (see our #2307) has several maps that are derived from this map. Four sheets disected and folded with marbled end papers. Full color.

Although their names are not on the map, this is the United States portion only of Rogers and Johnston's 1857 Map of the United States (see our #4390). Significant changes from the 1857 edition in the west, showing Nevada, Colorado, and Arizona, though there appear to be no changes to the topography, only political boundaries. Map is dissected into 40 sections and mounted on linen. Folds into a green cloth covered case 24x16 with "Map Of The United States London: Edward Stanford, 6 Charing Cross, S.W." printed on paper and affixed to the front. Full color.

Two engraved maps. Boundaries hand col.; hydrography printed in blue. Relief shown by hachures and spot heights. Shows battle sites, light houses, etc. Includes inset of Galapagos Isles at same scale. "Keith Johnston's general atlas" 47-48., First edition. This atlas was one of the best world atlases published in England in the second half of the 19th century. The North America map shows Colorado as a Territory - very up to date on U.S. political changes (most U.S. atlases do not show Colorado until 1862) for an English Atlas. Also shows Nevada, and a horizontal Arizona. However, the western U.S. map shows none of this -- its layout is pre-1860. Maps have a mixture of hand colored outline and printed blue color for water. Covers are half leather brown cloth covered boards with "Keith Johnston's royal atlas of modern geography" stamped in gilt on the cover, and "The Royal Atlas. Keith Johnston. W. Blackwood & Sons" on the spine., Phillips, 835. National Maritime Museum. Catalogue, 507., Cf. Catalogue of maps of Hispanic America, v. 2, p. 30 (1866 ed.)
