Note
1st issued 1861. Last issue 1864. With an inset "Plan of the Sea Coast From Virginia to Florida." This map is a companion map to Colton's Topographical Map of the Seat of War in Virginia, Maryland, &c. (see our copy), but on a larger scale (8 miles to an inch vs. 12 miles). It is both highly detailed (railroads, physical features, towns, counties, etc.) and highly decorative (many ships illustrated off the coasts). Map has outline color by state and water painted in blue; inset has full color by state.
