The most striking are the 15 sheets that make up Plate 22, the meander maps of the Mississippi from Cape Girardeau to Donaldsonville." (LSU web site). 78 plates, maps, tables, diagrs. and atlas of 27 folding maps. The Rumsey collection has about half of the 27 maps and plates. The other half have been downloaded from the biotect.law.lsu.edu site, with thanks. Stanford Library has a complete physical copy, see https://searchworks…
