Large and very detailed German map issued prior to the outbreak of the Civil War. It covers the United States with parts of Canada and Mexico. The states and territories are shown with correct boundaries and there is superb detail of the railroads and emigrant roads. The coloring divides the states into regions, including the slave states.
