Note
Dated 1812 on the title page, with one map dated 1813 (England and Wales), the others dated 1811 or 1812. This is a charming atlas with well executed maps that are fairly typical for the period. From the title it seems that this was intended to accompany gazetteers and geographies and thus probably had some use in the schools. Darton also issued puzzle maps (see our #3407). Maps are hand painted in full color. Covers are new green marbled paper covered boards with a green leather spine and black leather label on the front reading "William Darton. Union Atlas 1812" in gilt.
