Nebraska Territory is also delineated along the western edge of the map. The key at bottom left identifies cities based on population, state capitals, railways, and canals. Published in Stuttgart by Krais & Hoffman.

Traugott Bromme was one of the most prolific German travel writers in the mid nineteenth century. He issued a number of travel guides to America, as well as a number of important German atlases. His work was very influential in the influx of Germans who comprised the largest group of immigrants to the United States between 1840 and 1880.
