18451358841845. Rare printing of the 1845 annual report of the Commissioner of the General Land Office of the United States of America. Octavo disbound. Contains numerous folding maps and public surveys of Indiana Michigan Iowa Wisconsin Missouri Illinois Arkansas South Tennessee Southeastern Louisiana Alabama showing Chickasaw Cherokee and Creek Cessions and the State of Florida. In near fine condition. Rare. The first great expansion of the United States of America came with the Louisiana Purchase of 1803 which doubled the country's territory although the southeastern border with Spanish Florida was the subject of much dispute until it and Spanish claims to the Oregon Country were ceded to the US in 1821. The annexation of the Republic of Texas in 1845 led directly to the Mexican–American War after which the victorious United States obtained the northern half of Mexico's territory including what was quickly made the state of California. However as the development of the country moved west the question of slavery became more important with vigorous debate over whether the new territories would allow slavery and events such as the Missouri Compromise and Bleeding Kansas. This came to a head in 1860 and 1861 when the governments of the southern states proclaimed their secession from the country and formed the Confederate States of America leading to the American Civil War. unknown

The Royal Clyde Yacht Club founded in 1856 was the biggest in Britain at the end of the 19th century and Clyde yachts were world famous as pioneers of the relatively new sport of yacht racing. "It will be seen that for the most part the period dealt with is that lying between the beginning of 1880 and the end of 1887. Four boats built prior to 1880 have been given a place in our book - namely the Cyprus Madge Neva and Viril - because they were amongst the most notable of the boasts which ushered in the type so popular in after years" Preface. The fine chromolithographs reproduce a series of watercolours by Henry Shields RBA 1859-1935 showing famous yachts or "white wings". Three of them were America's Cup challengers: the Genesta 1884 Galatea 1886 and Thistle 1887. Folio.
