Stolen atlas recovered
An 1823 atlas that was stolen last month has been recovered, reports the AP. The atlas, titled “A New American Atlas” and published in 1823 by Henry Tanner, is about two feet tall and is bound in red leather. It was half-inched from the Historical Society of Rockland County in Pennslyvania. There’s a similar copy on sale at AbeBooks.com for a cool $85,000.
