Description:
|
|
| This scarce map is the first geological map of Boston and possibly only the second geological map published in the United States. It was compiled by J. Freeman Dana & Samuel L. Dana, two New Hampshire brothers with an amateur passion for geology. Eight different geological strata are defined through subtle original hand-colour. [USA9135] |
