Note
Early map of battle area, copyright 1855. Stephenson is probably wrong in dating this as 1863. We date it as 1861 because it is earlier than the copy we have that is entered in 1862 (which copy Stephenson misdates as entered in 1852). Folded into dark green textured cloth covers 14.5x9.5 with the title "Map Of The Seat Of War In Virginia, Maryland, &c. J.H. Colton." in gilt. Prime meridian is Washington D.C.

Note
Important U.S. Railroad map; civil war references. Goldthwait did an early map of the Mississippi Valley in 1833 (see Karrow index), engraved for Johnson (large N.A. 1859) and Colton (County Map of N.A. 1864) and produced several beautiful railroad maps. Colton put out a later edition of this map (see Phillips 909). This map is extraordinary for its graphic clarity and elegance. Two inset maps show railroad routes in New England and the Mid West. The west is largely empty except for California where many towns are listed along with topographical features. Many lists of statistics are provided (showing population growth) as well as a list of the seceding southern states with dates of secession. Railroad routes are shown as single and double track, including the width of the gauge. Full color map, folded into textured brown cloth covers 14.5x9 with "Goldthwait's Map Of The United States & Canada" stamped in gilt. Relief shown by hachures.
