Using more than five hundred historical maps from collections
around the world, this stunning book is the first to tell the story
of America's past from a unique geographical perspective. Covering
more than half a millennium in U.S. history - from conception to
colonization to Hurricane Katrina - this atlas documents the
discoveries and explorations, the intrigue and negotiations, the
technology and the will that led the United States to become what
it is today. Richly detailed, visually breathtaking maps are
accompanied by extended captions that elucidate the stories and
personalities behind their creation. Coasts and mountains, rivers
and lakes, and peaks and plains are described by explorers
encountering them for the first time. These maps can convey
explorers' ideas of what lay over the mountains ahead, their
notions about what was discovered, and their explanations of the
land's potential for sponsors back home. The maps can also show a
promoter's attempt to sell his project to settlers or a general's
assessment of a coming battle. They chart the wars that created and
molded the country: the French and Indian War and the War for
Independence; the Mexican and Civil Wars; the numerous Indian wars;
as well as more localized battles of conquest and survival. Readers
can follow the progression of map creation and design as more
knowledge was gained about the American continent. Distilling an
enormous amount of information into one handsome volume, the
"Historical Atlas of the United States" highlights the evolution of
geographical knowledge at the same time that it presents a
fascinating chronicle of the expansion and development of a nation.
