Rowland, David J.
Note
Perhaps the earliest American timeline. Uses a stream metaphor, time and events flowing toward the bottom. Middle Ages shows the "dark shades of error" as the truths of Christianity became obscured. Lots of historical text including key events and descriptions of various Christian sects.

[Eddy, Isaac, Wilson, James]
Note
Designed to make history more comprehensible and to illustrate the flow of time and events. Explanatory text at bottom of chart. Depicted as a tree with newer times higher in the tree. Obscure parts of history hidden by leaves. Two vignettes: apparently Adam in the Garden of Eden and a Native American hunting party. The ends of particular lines of civilization shown by the limb being "amputated" at the appropriate date. Lacks any reference to East Asian or New World (except United States) governments.

Willard, Emma
Note
Showing Roman Empire at its greatest extent A.D. 107. The first edition. Woodbridge's section on Modern Geography was accompanied by his Modern Atlas (first edition was 1824, P337 - see our later editions). Willard did not yet have an atlas to accompany her Ancient Geography - she first issued that atlas in 1827. Woodbridge and Willard discovered that they shared similar approaches to teaching geography and so decided to collaborate on this book. Maps uncolored and integrated with the text. Book bound with quarter leather with the remainder paper covered with title printed on front.

Shows historical events on a large map of the Eastern United States from Columbus to about 1840. Six inset facsimiles of early maps. A tablet of history is mounted on the verso. The map was published for the Centennial celebrations and reflects Blanchard's growing interest in American history during the mid 1870's.

Folds into brown leather end boards 37x27 with "Historical Map Of The United States. Blanchard" stamped in gilt.
Author
Colton, J. H.
Note
Stream of Time maps were popular in the second half of the 19th century (see our 1858 Tableau De L'Histoire Universelle by Pick) and later, but this map or diagram by Colton is an early example, at least in the United States. The period covered starts with the Creation in 4004 BC and extends down to 1842. The bottom of the map has an Explanation which states that "Each Nation is represented by a stream which is broken in upon or flows on undisturbed as it is influenced by the accession of Territory or the remaining at Peace." With hand painted color and black top and bottom rollers.
