A separate copy of the map published in Forbes' History of Upper and Lower California. It is a lithograph, taken from the engraved edition of the map that appears in the first edition of Forbes' book. At first we thought this must be from one of the two reprints done in 1919 and 1939, but it is not. Possibly Smith Elder put out a later edition with this lithographed map but left the date the same on the title page. However, we still think it is more modern than that - we will keep looking for the source. Inset maps are titled: Sketch of Port Bodega. Harbour of San Francisco. Sketch of Puerto de S. Diego. Sketch of Monterrey Harbour. Sketch of St. Barbara Harbour. Sketch of Port S. Gabriel, or S. Pedro. Map has outline color by country. Prime meridian is Greenwich. |

Large scale map of Oahu made eighteen years prior to the U.S. annexation in 1899. Shows detailed topography, land ownership and improvements. Written on the verso is the name of M.M. O'Shaughnessy, who, according to DAB, "was actively engaged in designing and constructing the water supply of twenty sugar plantations in Hawaii, 1899-1906, and built three aqueducts, each about ten miles long." Several ms additions on the map indicate interest in the river systems of Oahu and probably pertain to these projects. This is a scarce map of early Hawaiian development. See also O'Shaughnessy's Oahu map of 1899 and his copy of the 1906 Governor's Report. Full color. Relief shown by hachures and spot heights. Printed on 4 sheets. David Rumsey Collection copy mounted as one sheet, printer name cropped off. |
