This copy is by M'Dermut only and may be earlier than the Phillips, which is dated 1814. Also, neither Phillips or Tooley mentions Scoles and Hoogland as engravers, only Sim and Anderson. The maps are very well done, copied we presume from the English edition by Laurie (P5588). See Melish's 1815 Ancient geography for similar but reengraved maps. Bound with peach colored paper with label pasted on the front and entitled as above. |

| Note |
The first atlas made in the United States to employ standard color on the maps, while the Carey 1795 American Atlas and the Carey 1811 General Atlas list color as an option on the title page, we have never seen any copies of a pre 1814 Carey atlas with original color - they may exist, but would be rare - color was first employed as standard in this 1814 edition - all copies that we have seen have been colored. This edition is almost entirely new, with most of the maps reengraved. The 1804 edition before this was essentially the same as the 1795 first edition. The preface is dated March 17th, 1814. This edition should probably be called the second edition even though Carey does not label it as such, because Carey calls the 1818 edition the third edition. The Map of the United States is an updated copy of the U.S. map engraved by Henry Tanner that appeared in the first edition of Melish's Travels In the United States, published in 1812. This issue is late 1814. See our early 1814 for differences. Bound in quarter leather, brown paper covered boards. |
