Note:
A scarce small atlas of ten maps published in Holland, but authored by a school teacher from the Dutch Colony in Holland, Michigan. It was most likely sold to Dutch Americans and those in Holland planning to emigrate or who had relatives in America. The date is estimated by Phillips and Koeman. Koeman lists an earlier edition of 1849, with five maps. There is a double page of text at the end of the maps, with lists of distances by steamboat and railroad. The copy listed in Phillips has a cover title, not present here. Maps are hand painted with outline color.
