250690U. S. Pacific Railroad Exploration & Survey War Department. Map. Lithograph with original hand coloring. Image measures 26.75 x 38.5".<br/><br/> This fascinating geological section of the Mississippi River derives from the investigations of Jules Marcou a French geologist who worked extensively in North America. In 1853 under the service of the U.S. government he became the first geologist to cross the United States as part of the Pacific railroad exploration headed by A.W. Whipple that was then then underway. This map was the result of his travels and was published as part of a report entitled "Reports of explorations and surveys to ascertain the most practicable and economical route for a railroad from the Mississippi River to the Pacific Ocean made under the direction of the Secretary of War in 1853-4." Presented as a geological cross-section the map is color-coded to indicate the type and age of the rock along the river as per a key in the upper left. Mountain ranges are simply but delicately rendered and valleys are labeled beneath each section to show their expanse. The map also provides the locations of various creeks forts Indian territories and intersecting rivers. The map is in good condition with original folds as issued. Some tears at folds. William P. Blake was the Geologist of the Office of the Unites States Pacific Railroad Surveys. These surveys were conducted in 1853-1855 in the interest of finding possible routes for a transcontinential railroad. This map functions as a document of the kinds of investigations conducted in this period of rapid Western expansion.<br/><br/> U. S.

108761London: Longman Hurst Rees Orme & Brown 1817-1831. Oblong folio 2 34 plates 30 from Piroli's original set plus 4 by Howard; Hesiod title page 37 Blake plates the first a second title page. Bound in original half brown morocco and cloth gilt title to front cover wear to spine edges and corners binding strained due to weight of pages and apparently with an earlier repair holding reasonably firm. § Bound with Flaxman's Aeschylus here the 1831 issue published by Miss Flaxman and Maria Denman. The Aeschylus is rather dusty and with occasional mild foxing marks and an old triangular dampstain at the upper right corner affecting the first 20 plates to a decreasing extent not touching the designs. Bentley believes 50 copies of this issue were printed on publication in 1831. The Hesiod plates are dated 1816 or 1817 consistent with Bentley's note that 200 sets were printed in 1817 but sold slowly such that 18 sets were still unsold in 1838 and dealers made up combined copies of the Flaxman titles in various combinations. This set appears to be one such set. The Hesiod plates are generally clean with light dusting to margins a few margins slightly mottled and also occasional light foxing to a few but mainly to outer margins.
