HINTON, JOHN H. The History and Topography of the United States.

Engraved title-pages, 99 maps and plates, many folding, a few hand-colored; all the plates in volume 2 on India paper. 4to, later 1/ 2 morocco, a bit worn and stained; interior generally quite clean, minor tears and creases to the folding maps, a couple plates foxed. Overall, a nice set. London, 1830-32

  • Notes: first edition. "This once popular history, first published in monthly parts, is now sought for mainly on account of the fine steel engravings with which it is illustrated, and in this respect the early editions are of course preferable. Some copies were issued with the plates on India paper"--Sabin 31965; Howes H512.
