Pub Note:
This is Charles Morse's only folio atlas. He uses many of the (Sidney E.) Morse and Breese cerographic maps, but hand colors them. Morse was the son of Samuel F.B. Morse (inventor of the magnetic telegraph) and nephew of map publisher Sidney E. Morse. Charles Morse collaborated with Colby on the tiny Diamond Atlas. There is a second illustrated title page reading "Morse's General Atlas. Compiled From The Latest And Best European And American Authorities. Published by D. Appleton ... New-York. Herrick, Del. Roberts, Sc." Full color. Relief shown by hachures. Prime meridians Washington and Greenwich.
