No Binding. Condition: Very Good. 3rd Edition. This is the third edition, 1st printing (reduced in size) of this important and prominent map of New Hampshire by Carrigain. It was thus included in: 'The Geology of New Hampshire' (1874-1878) in the folio, 'Atlas Accompanying the Report on the Geology of New Hampshire.'
