Provenance: With contemporary manuscript ownership inscription of Augustus ?Scronsius. From the important cartographical library of Warren Heckrotte, his sale, Rare Cartography, Exploration and Voyages, Part II, December 3, 2015, Lot 192. First edition. Rare first edition of this important map of the West at a time of geographic discovery as well as political upheaval and change. The map is issued with the 46-page text "Accompaniment to Mitchell's New Map of Texas, Oregon, and California, with the Regions Adjoining." As noted in the Accompaniment, Texas has recently been annexed into the United States, and California is in limbo, "Upper California. This part of Mexico was declared independent in 1845. It has of late attracted much attention in the United States; a number of Americans are already settled in it, and many others are preparing to emigrate thither." Regarding Oregon, the Accompaniment declares that "the United States have an indubitable claim to the whole region of Oregon, from N. lat 42º to 54º 40', yet the government has several times proposed, from motives of accommodation, to adopt the 49th parallel of latitude as the dividing line." The proposed boundary line along the 49th parallel is shown on the map, though the coloring of Oregon still reflects joint occupation up to N. lat 54º 40'. "In the Upper California portion, Fremont is carefully followed, while further north Wilkes is followed. The boundary (to be) with Mexico is imperfectly shown but Texas appears with the magnified boundaries, including Santa Fe, of the 1844 Emory. The various claims to Oregon appear. The Accompaniment is of particular interest, containing perhaps the clearest statement of Oregon and California facts that came out of the period just prior to settlement of the former's boundaries and inclusion of the latter in the United States" (Wheat).

The very important 1846 Mitchell map of Texas and the American West, here included as frontispiece to his General View of the United States, published the same year. Samuel Augustus Michell was one of the most influential map publishers in America in the 19th century, also producing numerous travel guides and statistical compilations to accompany them. The map present here is one of his most significant, representing "a great step forward, in that it is among the first by a commercial cartographer to utilize the recent explorations that had bounded and determined the nature of the Great Basin.because of its popularity, this map of the West exerted great influence, not only with the public but on other commercial cartographers" (Wheat). Published in 1846, this highly detailed "New Map of Texas, Oregon and California with the Regions Adjoining" would have been of immediate value to the public, who were focused with intense interest on the war breaking out on the Texas-Mexico border. It depicts the western portion of the United States to the Pacific, with Indian Territory, Missouri Territory, Iowa, and portions of the states of Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Wisconsin, as well as northern Mexico and part of British Columbia, illustrating in detail the trans-Mississippi region. The Santa Fe Trail and the Oregon Trail are both detailed, the latter with a table of distances published in the lower corner of the map. It is also deeply reflective of America's most aggressive land claims: Texas is elaborately depicted with the Rio Grande as its southern border, and Oregon is shown extended to 54deg 40". As one of if not the best commercial Western maps available, it played a part in some of the largest developments in the country at the time: Brigham Young, for example, ordered six copies before setting out for Utah that winter. The map was originally published with a short pamphlet very similar to the book offered here; it describes each territory or state in turn, with notes on Lewis and Clark and other early explorers, and more historical material. The General View of the United States which accompanies this copy provides detailed statistics, tables, and charts for every state in the Union as of 1840, including population, institutions of higher education, and details of mining and natural resources. The section on "Western States and Territories" prints much of the same information as the original accompaniment, including notes on Lewis and Clark, Pike, and Long, and additional details which Wheat calls "perhaps the clearest statement of Oregon and California facts that came out of the period just prior to the settlement of the former's boundaries and the inclusion of the latter in the United States." A valuable and historically important map, and highly illustrative of the explosive territorial expansion and concomitant conflicts of the 19th century. Map: HOWES M685, "aa." SABIN 49714.

This is Mitchell's third map of Oregon (the first being "Oregon and California" published in Mitchell's ;School and Family Geography;, and the second being "Mexico and Guatemala" which includes Upper or New California, New Mexico and Texas." (Wheat, Mapping The Transmississippi West 520). Carl Wheat described it as: ".a work of real importance, highly popular [and].on it the influence of the War wioth Mexico is strikingly revealed.It was among the first by a commercial cartographer to utilize the recent explorations that had bounded and determined the nature of the Great Basin. The Texas claim to a western boundary up the Rio Grande is here shown, with the northern panhandle extending all the way to the 42nd parallel.Because of its popularity, this map of the West exerted great influence, not only on the public but on other commercial cartographers." "The region covered by the map was of particular interest in 1846 because of two recent and related events. In 1845, Texas was admitted into the Union, which prompted Mexico to invade Texas in 1846, thus precipitating the U.S.-Mexican war. General curiosity about the new State of Texas and interest in the war with Mexico led to Mitchell's timely map becoming quite popular. Mitchell used the latest and best sources for the map, including Arrowsmith's 1841 map of Texas, Fremont's and Emory's maps of their explorations in the region, data from the Lewis & Clark expedition, Nicollet's map of the region between the Mississippi River and the Missouri River, Wilkes map of Oregon. Among other significant uses of the map, Brigham Young ordered 6 copies of the map and an example in the BYU collection includes an annotation placing the Mormons in Utah, pre-dating Fremont's map of 1848, which is the first printed map noting the presence of the Mormons in the Great Basin. The map shows Texas's claims to the Upper Rio Grande in present-day New Mexico -- eventually given up, as part of the Great Compromise of 1850, in exchange for the U.S. Federal Government's assumption of Texas's public debt. One of the most influential maps in Western American History." (from Stanford University Library).

This map was made by S. Augustus Mitchell for "Mitchells New General Atlas" published in 1884, by WM. M. Bradley & Co. The well maintained maps in this atlas feature Mitchell's characteristic pastel coloring and abundant geographical features. Details include the names of counties, cities, towns, transportation routes, rivers, lakes, and mountain ranges. Regions are distinguished by color. These 1884 maps offer a fascinating perspective of areas that have since undergone significant growth and change, in addition to their value as great examples of Mitchell's work. This map measures 12 inches by 19.5 inches.

The Mitchell company was one of the first to try out the new technique of engraving on steel plates, experimenting with steel almost 20 years before the rest of the publishing industry. He was printing with steel in the early 1830s; the general switch to steel was approximately 1850. During the early years of the company, Mitchell published mainly maps and travel guides. In 1860, Mitchell started producing "Mitchell's New General Atlas", and Mitchell Sr. retired and turned the business over to his son of the same name. The New General Atlas was published until 1893. Today Mitchell maps are sought after for their fine engraving, bright coloring, and attention to detail. They are some of the finest maps produced in the 1860's. This map produced in 1867, has Mitchell's unique floral border, and beautiful hand coloring. This map details California,counties, cities, towns, transportation routes, and topographical features are illustrated. Two inset maps are included showing the San Francisco Bay and Vicinity and a Map of the Settlements in the Great Salt Lake Country,Utah. This map measures 10.5 inches by 13 inches.

This map was produced by Augustus Mitchell in 1878 for his New General Atlas. Highlights of this map are Mitchells traditional grapevine border, characteristic pastel coloring and abundant details of geographical features. This is a beautiful illustrated map of the state of California includes a large inset of the city of San Francisco and a smaller inset of the San Francisco Bay and vicinity. Surrounding towns and neighborhoods are distinguished by color. This 1878 map offers a fascinating perspective of areas that have since undergone significant growth and change, in addition to the value as great examples of Mitchell's classic mapmaking style. This map measures 14.5 inches by 21.25 inches.

This map was produced by S. Augustus Mitchell in 1875 for his New General Atlas. This map shows Mitchells traditional grape vine border, characteristic pastel coloring and abundant details of geographical features. Counties are distinguished by different colors. Wagon trails and major routes of transport are also shown. These 1875 maps offer a fascinating perspective of areas that have since undergone significant growth and change, in addition to their value as great examples of Mitchell's work. This map measures 15 inches by 21 inches.

In 1860 S. Augustus Mitchell Jr. took over his father's map publishing business and in that year he started publishing Mitchell's New General Atlas. Editions of the new general were issued annually until 1887. Mitchell Jr. continued publishing this atlas until 1879. The editions from 1880 to 1887 were published by Wm. M. Bradley. This map published in 1865 is a wonderful example of Mitchell's map-making prowess with beautiful original hand-coloring. This map measures 10.5 inches by 13.5 inches.
