1932 PAULLIN ATLAS of the HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY of the united states-$25
Full title of the hardcover book is Atlas of the Historical Geography of the United States. Author is Charles O. Paullin; Editor is John K. Wright. “The Atlas…may be described as a composite work, since many scholars have cooperated in its making.”
CONDITION: Tight & clean with some flaws. Inside back cover has some top paper scraped off in a couple of spots…one of the Index pages has a dark smudge, inside front cover there are a few spots/blemishes (nothing hideous). Covers show wear and back cover has scratches & a spot of discoloration at top near spine. Cover Tail, spine & edges show wear & fraying…corners bumped. Expect other minor flaws but nothing affecting text/maps.
Cartography of the United States, Early Maps-Facsimiles, Historical Geography & Descriptions/Travel--it’s all here and quite rare. The volume is offered for sale occasionally, but not often. Fascinating & informative book—for scholars & those interested in U. S. history.
