Some brownspots and a bit of lower right corner gone. <br/><br/><em>First edition of Glaser's world-atlas where the lacking title-page should be dated 1839. "The map sheets were to a large extent modeled on Stieler's handatlas. The maps were not simple copies however. They were newly drawn as can be seen for example in fact that some sheets were rotated 90 degrees. Glaser also chose to use a map sheet measuring 406 x 495 cm. a larger format than that of the Stieler whose sheets at that time were 363 x 442 cm. This enabled him to use a somewhat larger scale than that found in the STIELER."Jürgen Espenhorst Petermann's Planet p. 1013. </em> unknown

1871894281871. ATLAS Bridgeman E.C. translated by Mitsukuri Genpo. RENPO SHIRYAKU 2 vols. Tokyo Zodiacal date of Meiji 4 1871. String-bound Japanese-style fukuro-toji. An interesting work by Bridgeman the Chinese missionary originally published in Chinese but here marked for reading as Japanese kanbun. Thus not a translation as we might understand the term but a long standing aid for literate Japanese to understand the original classical Chinese. With a number of bw and some color maps of the USA along with a text describing US history culture economics etc. A bit of cover soiling outside and the scattered signs of insect damage internally but overall a very good copy. Upon comparison to the original Japanese edition of 1861 there is not much to choose between them. unknown
