Description |
English: A beautiful example of A. J. Johnson’s 1864 map of North Carolina and South Carolina. Offers a fascinating snapshot of these states during the American Civil War. Map shows both states in full with color coding according to county. An inset map in the lower right hand quadrant depicts the city and harbor of Charleston. Throughout, Johnson identifies various cities, towns, rivers and assortment of additional topographical details. Engraved views depicting the “Chimney Rocks and French Broad River” and “Table Mountain”, decorate the upper left and lower left hand quadrants, respectively. Features the strapwork style border common to Johnson’s atlas work from 1860 to 1863. This is unusual as this is comes from the 1864 edition of the atlas and is one of the few plates that Johnson did not update with the new fretwork border. Published by A. J. Johnson and Ward as plates 39-40 in the 1864 edition of Johnson’s New Illustrated Family Atlas . This is the first edition of the Johnson’s Atlas to bear the Johnson & Ward imprint and the only edition to identify the firm as the “Successors to Johnson and Browning (Successors to J. H. Colton and Company)”. |
