'The United States in 1790 Showing Extent of Settlement at the Time of the Beginning of Government under the Constitution'
An unusually interesting early twentieth-century historical map showing the progressive extent of early European and, later, English settlement in the United States up to 1790, at the beginning of federal government under the Constitution. Prepared under the direction of American historian Joseph Roswell Hawley Moore and engraved by Williams Engraving Co. of New York, it was originally issued with Edward Channing’s History of the United States. Colour washes distinguish the advance of settlement from the seventeenth century to 1790, with older coastal settlement, the expanding interior frontier, towns and principal routes shown against a lightly engraved base. The map is especially effective in visualising the settlement edge at the close of the Revolutionary era.
