1866 1edAlbert Nyanza Nile Tributaries AFRICA
Egypt Abyssinia Samuel Baker Maps
Samuel White Baker was an English explorer and was the first Englishman to sit in a high office of the Egyptian government. Many of Baker's works shed light on the horrors of slave owners and slave trade in central Africa. His works, however, also centralized on Egypt and the Abyssinia Nile tributaries. He had an extensive knowledge of Egypt as he held important political officers in Egypt.
His accounts of Egypt and the Nile River Basin are some of the most important 19th-century books on the Nile River and helped record the discovery of Lake Albert. 'The Albert N'yanza, Great Basin of the Nile' is Baker's account of his discovery of the last great source of the Nile.

Description:
1742 History of PERSIA Revolutions Nader Shah Kouli Khan Iran MAP Middle East 2vJean-Antoine du Cerceau was a 17th-century French Jesuit poet whose works were quite popular amongst noble courts. He is best known for his poems, plays, and short stories, but he also wrote an important work on the history of the Persian revolutions and the reign of Qoli Khan, the Nader Shah. This work, which is also sometimes attributed to Andre Claustre, covers the history of Iran, Afghanistan, and Persia, religious and cultural customs, and Middle Eastern geography.
This book also discusses the reign of Qoli Khan himself, his corrupt power, and the revolts and assassination against him. Note the impressive folding map.

condition: professionally removed from wood backing and restored, deeply toned paper, some surface damage to paper, repaired vertical tear through sheet, backed with Japanese Mulberry tissue, some chipping at edges Map Description:
This scarce Wisconsin pictorial map was created by the artist Nina S. Bahlman (b1886-___) whose art work other than this map may exist in collections but is not readily identified. The copyright is held by Erwin F. Bahlmann (b.1886-__) a family member or spouse. The Library of Congress cites its copy of this map as Historical Map of Wisconsin and cites a 1995 copyright registration. WorldCat confirms that there is a 1995 reprint of this map. A further note corrects the spelling of the artist's name to read "Bahlmann". The example of the map on offer gives every appearance of being the 1932 edition.

The map depicts the Territory of Utah in its final form--large areas had been removed and ceded to Nevada, Colorado, Wyoming, and Nebraska since Utah became a U. S. Territory in 1850. The issue of polygamy prevented statehood until it was finally granted in 1896. This map features railroads and topography and uses color to set off counties from each other. Unlike most atlas maps of the period, this map identifies most small towns. The map is guaranteed to be moe than 135 years old. The map is in about very good condition: generally clean and bright, with slight toning of paper and one faint water stain near the center-left edge of the map.. Original. Single Sheet. Very Good-.
