Item Details
Description
  • Title/Content of Map: 1840 c. Collins Map of the US with Railroads -- United States
  • Date: 1840 c., London
  • Cartographer: H Collins
  • Size: 11.2 x 9 in.

    This is a very interesting map of the US east of Texas ca. 1840. It prominently shows the railroads of the day, which were clustered on the East coast, with only 5 smaller lines more inland: 1 each in Kentucky, Ohio and Indiana and 2 in Michigan. While the states are color-coded, interestingly, Michigan's Upper Peninsula is not shown as part of Michigan (part of a controversy delaying its admittance to the Union). Plenty of topographical and settlement details are offered.
