1860 Mitchell's Map of the United States, and Territories. Together with Canada

Description: 1860 Mitchell's Map of the United States, and Territories. Together with Canada A terrific map published at a time when many territorial borders were rapidly changing, giving this map some of the most unique border configurations available. Utah is still oversized as the newly formed Nevada has its border at 116° longitude, two full degrees from its present location. Colorado has just been formed, and the map locates Denver City, Ft. St. Vrains, and little else. New Mexico extends between Texas and California, but Arizona Territory occupies its southern half. This is the rare Confederate Territory of Arizona as established by Confederate General Baylor. Oregon State has just been formed, leaving its eastern half to Washington Territory, now shaped as an upside-down "L" bordering Utah in the south. Nebraska has a long panhandle that extends west to the border with Washington and Utah. The huge Dacotah Territory extends between the Continental Divide to the Red River in Minnesota and is bounded at the top and bottom by the Canada and Nebraska Territory. Oklahoma is Indian Territory. An extensive railroad network runs throughout the East, with proposed railroads, wagon roads, and emigrant routes shown in the western territories. Insets of Hampton Roads, Norfolk Harbor, and Pensacola Bay are shown in the Atlantic. The map has the first edition floral borders. 1860 Mitchell's Map of the United States, and Territories.
