W. & A.K. Johnston - The World: An Atlas - 1886
Embark on a captivating journey around the globe with 'The World: An Atlas', a comprehensive guide featuring 34 vividly detailed colored maps. Each map is presented as a separate plate, skillfully folded within the pages of the book for easy access and portability. From the bustling cities of Europe to the ancient wonders of the Turkish Empire, the lush landscapes of Asia to the vibrant cultures of the Americas and the enchanting beauty of Oceania, this atlas leaves no corner of the world unexplored.
The cover exhibits noticeable signs of wear and discoloration, with some writing present at the top. Pages display foxing, discolorations, and tears. Also, the first two maps are detached. Several maps throughout the book also bear tears mostly on the edges. Notably, the USA map sustains a significant rip, nearly dividing it in half. Despite these physical imperfections, the integrity of these 140-year-old maps remains uncompromised. Also, 1886 is an estimate of publication date based on research and comparison of similar examples.
This edition is complete with all 34 maps and a comprehensive 43-page index.
