Description

Associated with	Fullarton & Co.

Note	Detailed map of Algeria, with large insets of the Algiers environs, and two smaller plans of the Gulf of Oran and the area around Constantine, from this scarce mid 19th Century British Atlas. Fullarton's Royal Illustrated Atlas, the last highly decorative atlas published in England. Even the maps without views or figures are beautifully engraved and colored with a mixture of printed color and hand color. Swanston, Petermann, Bartholomew, Macnab and Johnson engraved the maps. The maps bear a superficial resemblance to Keith Johnston's Royal Atlas. Fullarton frequently gives the sources for his maps - for the United States maps he gives Calvin Smith and Tanner as sources.
Note	Map shows North Africa.
