Description:
|
|
| Rare, early map of the state of Rhode Island. Published in John Reid's American Atlas, the second folio-sized atlas published in the newly-independent United States. One of 15 new state maps added to the American edition of William Winterbotham's An Historical, Geographical, Commercial, and Philosophical View of the American United States (1796). The geography is largely based on the first printed map of Rhode Island by Caleb Harris, as well as Matthew Carey's 1795 map of the state. [USA9104] |
