Description |
English: A beautiful example of A. J. Johnson’s 1862 map of Minnesota and Dakota. Covers both states as well as adjacent parts of Wisconsin and Iowa. This map predates the splitting of the Dakotas and instead depicts them as a single great state bounded on the west by the Missouri River. The proposed northern route for the Pacific Railroad runs diagonally in a northwesterly direction across both Minnesota and Dakota. Offers color coding according to county and has notations for railways, forts, roadways, cities, towns, and river systems Also notes several American Indian nations including the Kdakotah, Odjibwe, Assiniboin, Aikara, Minitarree and others. Features the strapwork style border common to Johnson’s atlas work from 1860 to 1863. Published by A. J. Johnson and Ward as plate number 56 in the 1862 edition of Johnson’s New Illustrated Family Atlas . This is the first edition of the Family Atlas to bear the Johnson and Ward imprint. |
