Publication Note: This issue is the same as our other copy with the following changes: A label on the front cover says "American atlas colored;" the maps are all colored by the publisher; the maps are all placed together after the text, rather than dispersed through the text. The coloring of the maps is very well done - these rank will the best atlas maps produced in Europe of individual American states in the 1830's.
