Hardcover. Condition: vg. Transmitting  an Ambitious British Hydrographic Syntheses of the Caribbean to a French-language Atlantic World on the Eve of France s Intervention in the American RevolutionRare French edition of Jeffery's West Indi. Folio. Bound to style in handsome antique half calf and pastepaper-covered boards, green leather spine label, raised bands. Vellum-tipped corners. Inconspicuous occasional dust soil. Small paper repair to map index leaf at gutter margin (printed area unaffected). Letterpress title page, 6, [2, map index], double-page engraved pictorial title (in English) and 39 (36 double-page) engraved maps. Transmitting an Ambitious British Hydrographic Syntheses of the Caribbean to a French-language Atlantic World on the Eve of France s Intervention in the American RevolutionRare French edition of Jeffery's West Indian atlas. The original English edition of the atlas was issued in 1775. The present French version has a new French letterpress title page and preliminary text also in French. Includes detailed charts of the Canary Islands, Bermuda, Bahamas, Florida, Mexico, Cuba, Jamaica, St. Domingo, Costa Rica, Panama, Guadaloupe, Martinique, Barbados, Grenada, Tobago, Curacao and others.Jefferys s West Indian Atlas was first issued in English in 1775 by Sayer and Bennett, who had acquired Jefferys s materials after his death. The heart of the atlas is the sixteen-sheet complete chart of the West Indies with index map, supplemented by route charts from Britain through the Atlantic islands and individual island charts. The 1777 French edition, Atlas des Indes Occidentales, published in Paris by Julien, is rarer than the English version and is separately noted by Phillips under entry no. 3943. Although dependent on the 1775 English atlas, it is far more than a derivative curiosity: this atlas transmitted one of the most ambitious British hydrographic syntheses of the Caribbean to a French-language Atlantic world on the eve of France s intervention in the American Revolution. Of particular carto-bibliographical interest are the sheets extending beyond the islands to the Gulf and Spanish mainland, including the coast of West Florida and Louisiana and the Gulf of Mexico, and the Coast of New Spain and Bay of Honduras sheets, all part of the atlas s wider vision of the Caribbean as a connected maritime system rather than a simple island group.The maps are as follows:A chart of the British Channel . . . 1775.A chart of the Atlantic Ocean . . . 1775.Chart of the A ores (Hawks) Islands, called also Flemish and Western islands from m d Anville with several additions. 1775.

Sin Encuadernar. Condition: Bueno. [English description below] Raro mapa de San Juan, Puerto Rico, publicado por Sayer y Bennett en 1794. Esta es la segunda edición del mapa, siendo la primera publicada por Jefferys en 1762 (con el número de página 90; nuestra edición, en cambio, presenta el número 40 en la esquina superior derecha). Se trata de uno de los primeros planos existentes de la capital de la isla. El mapa se centra en el sistema de defensa del puerto, en una época en la que la isla era disputada entre España y el Reino Unido. Muestra la ciudad amurallada de San Juan con sus diferentes entradas: Santiago, San Juan y San Justo. Al norte limita con el Fuerte de la Perla y al oeste con el Castillo San Felipe del Morro. Más al oeste, cerca de la Isla de Cabra, se encuentra el Fortín San Juan de la Cruz, también conocido como El Cañuelo. Al otro lado de la ciudad se erige el Fuerte San Antonio, protegiendo el Puente de San Antonio, que conectaba San Juan con la Isla de Puerto Rico. El mapa se encuentra en excelente estado de conservación, con una liviana descoloración del papel en la parte inferior derecha, fuera del grabado. ---------------------------------------- Rare chart of San Juan, Puerto Rico, published by Sayer and Bennett in 1794. This is the second edition of that map, with the first edition published by Jefferys in 1762 (bearing page number 90). Our edition bears page number 40 in the upper right corner. It is one of the earliest obtainable plans of the capital of the island. The chart focuses on the defense system of the port, at a time when the island was heavily disputed between Spain and the United Kingdom. It shows the walled city of San Juan, with its different gates (Santiago, San Juan, and San Justo). It is bordered north by the Fuerte de la Perla and west by Castillo San Felipe del Morro. Further west, close to the Isla de Cabra, can be seen the fort Fortín San Juan de la Cruz, also called El Cañuelo. On the other side of the city is Fort San Antonio, protecting the Puente de San Antonio, which linked San Juan with the Island of Puerto Rico. Excellent condition, with a slight discoloration of the paper in the lower right margin, not affecting the image. ENG. Excellent.

A few minor faults expertly mended. The First National Atlas of the United States. The Exceptionally Rare 1783 Edition of Jeffery s American Atlas. A virtually-unknown edition of Jefferys's essential American Atlas, the updated 1783 edition, which, crucially, illustrates the latest geopolitical transformation resulting from the Treaty of Paris, declaring the establishment of the United States in several significant maps of North America - and therefore standing as the first national atlas of the United States. Thomas Jefferys' American Atlas was one of the four great atlases of the North American Colonies available during the Revolution - along with Faden's North American Atlas, Des Barres' Atlantic Neptune, and Jefferys and Sayer's A General Topography of North America - and it was certainly the most actively published and used. Jeffreys was the leading British cartographer of his day, becoming Geographer to the King by 1761. He started producing maps relating to North American circa 1750, when he issued a series of important maps of the British American colonies. Although Jefferys died in 1771, the importance of his American Atlas can be seen in how it continued to be updated and issued by Sayer and Bennett. According to Pritchard and Taliaferro: "That Sayer and Bennett were publishing atlases under Jefferys's name five years after his death indicated the late map publisher's continuing influence in the market" - Degrees of Latitude, page 211. While the 1776 edition of the American Atlas was THE atlas of the American Revolution, having been one of the primary cartographic references for American, British, and French military officials during the conflict, the triumph of the American cause would be first enshrined in the maps of this very rare 1783 edition. This Edition and Its Maps This edition of the American Atlas is of the greatest interest, as it is the first national atlas issued after the cessation of hostilities to proclaim the existence of the United States. Although the title page is dated 1782, in actuality it was almost certainly issued after the January 20, 1783 iteration of the Treaty of Paris, but before August 15, 1783. The three key maps are Stevens & Tree's numbers 4(e) [map 1]; 49(h) [maps 5-6]; and 51(d) [map 7], all of which rank among the very first English-language maps to include "United States" (or some allusion thereto) in the title. Map 1. A Chart of North and South America, Including the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. According to the Preliminary Articles of Peace, Signed at Versailles, 20, Jany. 1783. Imprint: Sayer & Bennett, 10 June, 1775. Dated by Stevens & Tree: 1775-[1783]. Maps 5-6. A New and Correct Map of North America, with the West India Islands.

Halsey (1847-1918), 'un des principaux collectionneurs de son èpoque à New York' (Lugt 1308) The image (of a fashionably-dressed young lady reclining by a brook being approached by a young gentleman) is explained by the engraved verse (by 'Mr. Nicholl') in the title area beneath the image: Alone by the side of a murmuring rill / That lav'd the gay foot of a primrosy hill / Pastora beneath a broad poplar was laid / When Damon in extasy enter'd the Shade / He sigh'd & he swore by the pow'rs overhead / If she'd bless him to day, to morrow he'd wed.

Titlepage, 2pp. dedication to "Gov. Pownall," 2pp. "Advertisement," 1p. "List of maps"; and six folding engraved maps, all hand-colored in outline. The "Holster Atlas" was issued at the suggestion of Gov. George Pownall and included the "maps that the British high command regarded as providing essential topographical information in the most convenient form" (Schwartz & Ehrenberg). This collection of maps was published by Sayer and Bennet at the beginning of the Revolution for the use of British officers. "Surveys and Topographical Charts being fit only for a Library, such maps as an Officer may take with him into the Field have been much wanted. The following Collection forms a Portable Atlas of North America, calculated in its Bulk and Price to suit the Pockets of Officers of all Ranks" (Advertisement). Although the publishers claimed the atlas would fit into an officer's pocket, it was more usually carried in a holster and thus gained its nickname.

Also issued as the first separately published map of Lake Champlain, this excellent detailed chart was based on a survey made during the French and Indian War, but not published until the Revolution. The map was issued in two states and is included here in its appropriate (and preferred) second state, illustrating the very first battle fought by the U.S. Navy: the Battle of Valcour Island, which transpired near present-day Plattsburgh, New York. Also included is an inset illustrating America's first naval battle, in which General Benedict Arnold, though forced back down the lake, was able to delay the British attempt to descend to the Hudson for that year.
