Pub Note:
Uncommon atlas has 60 double-page and 43 single-page maps in full, printed color. Each of the maps is followed by several pages of descriptive text that are decorated with beautifully engraved, uncolored views of well known buildings, local scenery or famous events. A pastedown label inside the front cover describes the "Patent Thumb Index"- a new and much easier way to navigate this atlas' impressive amount of content. Also includes a brilliantly colored, double-page display of the Flags of Various Nations. U.S. maps by Matthews-Northrup; extensive city maps. Same engravers did the Century Atlas. Bound in half leather dark brown cloth covered boards with "Appletons' Atlas Of Modern Geography" stamped on the front cover and spine in gilt.
