A New Map Of The Province Of Lower Canada, Describing all the Seigneuries, Townships, Grants of Land, &c. Compiled from Plans deposited in the Patent Office Quebec; By Samuel Holland, Esq.

Note
The first edition was 1802, with later editions in 1813, 1829, 1838, 1840 and 1843. Shows Canada from just west of Montreal east to St. John in New Brunswick. The 1802 edition was based on surveys made by Samuel Holland before his death in 1801. This was a companion map (although on a larger scale) to the David Smyth/Faden/Wyld map of Upper Canada, first issued in 1800 (see our copies). With outline color. See our 5065.000 for the 1838 edition. "Important map of the Lower Province of Canada, including information concerning over 100 land grants on either side of the St. Lawrence River, including the names of Land Owners. The map has been updated to show the surveys conducted in 1796-98 along the Scoudiac and Magaguadavic Rivers, in order to ascertain the true location of the St. Croix River. This second article of the Treaty of Peace between the US and Britain included a line...From the northwest angle of Nova Scotia, viz., that angle which is formed by a line drawn due north from the source of St. Croix River to the highlands… It later became apparent that there was more than one St. Croix River, a further treaty provision in 1794 appointed a boundary comission, which detemined in 1798 that the intended St. Croix was the Schoodiac River and its northern branch Cheputnaticook. The Treaty of Ghent, concluded on December 24, 1814, agreed to provide for a final adjustment of the boundaries described in the Treaty of 1783 that had not yet been determined, which included the boundary line from the source of the River St. Croix to the most northwestern point of the Lake of the Woods. A further commission was appointe to settle the boundary from the St. Croix to the St. Lawrence. Joseph Bouchette and John Lawrence were hired to conduct the surveys and the reports submitted for resolution to a third nation and ulimately resolved by the Webster-Ashburton Treaty of 1842. A scarce and important map." (Ruderman, 2021)

First Revisions to the first nautical chart of coast of Rio de la Plata by Don Andres de Oyarvide to the surveys by the Malapsina expedition. The original chart recorded Malapsina's observations along both coasts of the Rio de la Plata in 1789. Includes insets: Plano del Pto. de Maldonado [Uruguay] -- Plano del Puerto de Monte-video [Uruguay] and 3 views: La costa entre la Punta de la Sierra y la de la Ballena. Isla de Lobos. Cerro de Monte-video. Relief shown by hachures. Depths shown by soundings, shading, and isolines. Prime meridian is Cadiz. "Important early chart of the mouth of the River Plate, based upon the revisions made by Don Andres de Oyarvide to the original Spanish surveys undertaken by the Malapsina expedition. The chart includes smaller charts of Montevideo harbor and Maldonado harbor. The present chart is the first significant revision to the work during Malaspina expedition's survey of the coastline of the Rio de la Plata in 1789. The Malaspina Expedition (1789–1794) was a five-year maritime scientific exploration commanded by Alessandro Malaspina and José de Bustamante y Guerra The expedition was funded by the Spanish government and originally pursued strictly scientific goals, in the same fashion as the voyages of James Cook and Jean-François de Galaup, comte de La Pérouse. Some of the leading scientists at the time collected an impressive amount of scientific data that even surpassed what was collected during Cook's expedition, but due to Malaspina's involvement in a conspiracy to overthrow the government, he was jailed shortly upon return. Most of the expedition's reports and collections were put away unpublished, and didn't see the light until the late 19th century. The original chart recorded Malapsina's observations along both coasts of the Rio de la Plata in 1789. Malaspina proceeded as far north as the Rio Paraña, fixing precise points based upon 150 astronomical observations. The title of the original chart is: Carta esférica del Río de la Plata desde su desde embocadura hasta Buenos Aires [Material cartográfico] / levantada de Orden del Rey en 1789 y rectificada en 1794 por varios oficiales de su R[ea]l Armada, Presentada a S.M. por mano del Excmo. Sr. D. Juan de Langara Secretario de Estado y del Despacho Universal de Marina ; Fernando Selma la grabó ; Felipe Bauzá la delineó Andres Oyarvide was born in Guipuzcoa in the Basque region of Spain in 1750, and would rise to the title of Piloto-Major in the Royal Spanish Armada, before his death at sea in 1806. Following the Spanish War with Portugal, Oyarvide was part of the first expedition to survey and determine the line of demarcation of the Limits of the Treaty of San Ildefonso, from the Amazon to the Rio de La Plata. Oyarvide was assigned the task of surveying the Rio de la Plata and parts further north, which lasted from 1783 to 1798, when he sailed from Montevideo to Sain in January 1798. The following year, Oyarvide returned to the region and conducted and given instructions by Governor Bustamonte to conduct a detailed survey. From 1800 to 1803, Oyarvide conducted the survey which would radically rework and improve the original Malaspina work." Ruderman.

"The map is inscribed by John Macdonald Kinneir to Brigadier General Sir John Malcolm. Sir John Malcolm (1769-1833) spent the majority of his career in India in the employ of the East India Company. Whilst in India he gained a keen interest in the Persian Empire that would lead him to undertake several envoys to Persia under the auspices of the East India Company. In Persia, Malcolm not only successfully introduced the potato, but also took with him several men to conduct research into the country. One such was Kinneir, who in 1813, produced a 'Geographical Memoir of the Persian Empire', which described in detail the routes between the major towns. The present map was intended to accompany that work.The major reason for his research was Britain's increasing concern over Russia gaining power within the region, and whom they feared might invade India. This battle for influence in the area would continue throughout the nineteenth century and become known as 'The Great Game'." (Lyon and Turnbull)

(Title Page to) A Military and Topographical Atlas of the United States; including The British Possessions & Florida ...

Note
1st edition. 5 large folding maps, 3 small maps. This, the first edition, was published during the war, and thus has the feeling of events unfolding with an uncertain outcome. The second edition was published in 1815 after the conclusion of the war, and has different text, and is more of a history. Henry Tanner engraved the five large maps that Melish drew, and J. Vallance engraved the three small maps. We believe this is the first book Melish published with the idea that it was an "Atlas."
