Ordnance/ 1814" John Melish (1771-1822) was born in Scotland and emigrated to America, settling in Philadelphia in 1811. There he established himself as a cartographer-printer-publisher in the mold of the Dutch masters, and became the great mapmaker of the expanding United States. Crucial to his success was the pocket military atlas (compare the 1776 "Holster Atlas" of Sayer and Bennet) that combined not only large folding maps but considerable descriptions of the places depicted, their strategic roles ("The Seat of War in North America") as well as the military personnel crucial to the ongoing War of 1812. Indeed, so emblematic of the period was his "Seat of War" that a friend's suggestion that he make a corresponding maps of the "Seat of Peace" led to the first domestically-made coast-to-coast wall map of America in 1816. The present copy was presented to Lt. Col. George Armistead (1780-1818), whose brevet was the command of Fort McHenry during the Battle of Baltimore 12-15 September 1814. Crucial to the War of 1812, Fort McHenry's withstanding the bombardment of the Royal Navy inspired Francis Scott Key to write The Defence of Fort M'Henry, whose words were set to music as The Star-Spangled Banner, the United States National Anthem. Col. Armistead was responsible for the creation of the "flag so large that the British would have no difficulty seeing it from a distance" about which Scott Key wrote, and which now has pride of place in the Smithsonian National Museum of American History. Capt. Joseph Rees is known through correspondence (with George Bomford, who would go on to be Chief of Ordnance) relating to ordnance the provision of armaments which had been set up as a department in May of 1812. He was stationed at the Baltimore Arsenal, in which capacity he will have come to call Col. Armistead "his friend." The hand-writing is not Rees's but Armistead's, distinguished by the "Gr." abbreviating his given name. Armistead material is extremely uncommon (indeed, the auction record of an autograph letter calls it "among the rarest of all early American patriot's signatures"), to say nothing of the relevance of our volume to his famed command.
