Scarce War of 1812 map. Seven vignettes show important sea battles of the War of 1812. Information on the Post roads, other routes, population of states and territories is given in the borders. A curious note regarding fishing and grapes appears in northern Illinois - seems to be unique to this map. A later reissue of this map was put out in 1825 by Lewis Robinson (see Ristow 271). The map is not very up to date regarding political changes - it does not show Missouri Territory or Louisiana (both 1812). The copyright appears at the top of the map - July 6, 1813. It is engraved by A. Doolittle of New Haven and Kensett of Cheshire. Karpinski 13 is an 1812 Map of the United States and Canada by Kensett and Doolittle, based on surveys by Tardieu, and somewhat smaller in size. Outline color by state. Borders contain tables of distance on the Great Post Road from Pasamaquoddy (ME) to St. Mary's (GA), on the Post Road from Albany (NY) to Montreal ; also population and products of states. Relief shown pictorially and by hachures.
