"The American Lawyer, and Business-Man's Form Book…", Beadle, D. W.

This is the rare first edition with numerous double page maps, each printed on a separate page. The map "Utah New Mexico and California" shows a huge Gold Region with important rivers named including the Feather and American. There are numerous other state maps, mostly from east of the Mississippi River, but it includes some mid-western state maps with early county development, Louisiana and a nice Texas. The map of the United States shows Oregon Territory, a large Nebraska Territory (encompassing present-day Montana, Wyoming and Colorado), and an extremely large Indian Territory. 8vo, quarter leather over pictorial paper boards, 359pp.
