Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. Quarto. 12 in. x 9 1/2 in. Original stamped brown cloth, triple ruled in blind, with gilt lettering to spine. Moderate scuffing and edgewear to boards, with several bumped corners and rubbing to extremities. A small (half-inch gouge to front joint, possibly a worming start. Tightly… bound.

J. Newberry. Large, folding map bound-in at rear (36 in. x 30.5 in./ Map portion: 34 in. x 28 1/4 in. Some light toning to mostly to folds, with several very short separations at fold-points, and a few old cello-tape reinforcements/repairs. Overall, very clean. "The gold fields of four Territories, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah and Arizona unite in the centre of the Map, comprising the southern portions of the various mountain ranges generally called the Rocky Mountains."A delicate tint was ruled over the whoe plate to give the effect of a plaster model of the country." (Cartographer Baron F.W. Von Egloffstein.) Of this map it is written: ".It is one of the most beautiful maps ever published by the Army.A number of explorers' routes are shown, in addition to Macomb's route.This is a landmark map for various reasons. First, because it is the first to show a trail to the junction of the Green and the Grand. Second, because it is the culmination of Egloffstein's method of ruling maps and applying acid for varying times to convey the idea of altitude. And, third, because of the numerous trails of other explorers contained on it. It will stand for a long time as perhaps the finest map produced by this curious and revealing, yet evanescent, method." (. "Publication of this report was intended for 1861, but the Civil War compelled a delay of fifteen years." (Howes, M-179; Wheat 983).

Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Dust Jacket. First Edition. First edition printed in 1876. Dark brown cloth boards with faded gilt lettering on spine. Spine is quite faded and gilt has largely worn away; hinges partially cracked; head of spine is frayed and split and has been glued back in place. Scuffing and shelf wear to boards…; rubbing to edges, which has exposed the boards at the corners. Binding is surprisingly tight. Interior is toned but readable; some foxing, mostly to page edges; slight chipping to some page edges, does not impact content. Small bookplate from previous owner on first free endpaper, small number sticker on front pastedown. All 22 plates are present with 11 chromolithographic landscape views (all with tissue guards) , three other landscape views in black and white, and eight black and white plates with fossils. Plates are in very good condition with occasional foxing. Folding map that measures 36 x 30 ½ inches is bound in and in very good condition. Map has two tears where it is attached to the text block (neither impacts content) , slight toning, and a few small breaks at the intersections of folds. In 1859, Captain John N. Macomb led an expedition northwest from Santa Fe along the Old Spanish Trail in search of a route for transporting military supplies into Utah, eventually reaching the confluence of the Green and Grand rivers. Most of the text is J. S. Newberry's geological report. F. B. Meek contributed descriptions of Cretaceous fossils. Publication of the report was delayed until 1876 because of the Civil War. A fascinating report known for its detailed map and striking chromolithographic plates including the view of Shiprock that Farquhar called "one of the most pleasing of the scenic views made in that epoch."
