Note
Folded broadside inserted in Newspaper, printed without color. Probably a few weeks later than the Stephenson 451.3 (June 17, 1861) because some of the troop counts are increased (Richmond). The engraver credit for Waters & Son is not present, and the map appears to be reengraved. The map has the feel of an "hot off the press" look at the battlefields of the war. Shows military fortifications, roads and railroads. Relief shown by hachures.

List No
3236.001
Note
Separate issue of Johnston's National Atlas Map of the United States. Rare variant issue of this map: it has an inset of Charleston Vicinity and Harbor that does not appear on any other issues of the maps, and most importantly, the southern slave states and northern free states are color coded (solid red for slave and outline red for free). Two printed notes relate to the boundaries of the slave states and the cotton growing regions. The three forts at the entrance to Charleston Harbor are underlined in red. Although the presence of Minnesota Territory would indicate a date no later than 1858 (when it became a state), this map has much Civil War information and, in typical British fashion, it is probably a bit out of date as to political information, so we date it at the beginning of the war, 1861. Not in Stephenson. Map is dissected into 18 sections and mounted on linen with dark purple cloth covers 18.5x12 of Edward Stanford's map establishment, labeled with "Map Of The United States. London: Edward Stanford, 6, Charing Cross, S.W."
