This map was made by S. Augustus Mitchell for “Mitchell’s New General Atlas” published in 1887. The well maintained maps in this atlas feature Mitchell’s characteristic pastel coloring and abundant details of geographical features. Central America, Mexico and the West Indies are illustrated on this map. Insets show the islands of Bermuda, Jamaica, the Nicaragua Canal, the Panama Railroad, and the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. Details include the names of regions, important towns, rivers, lakes, and mountain ranges. Regions are distinguished by color. These 1887 maps offer a fascinating perspective of areas that have since undergone significant growth and change, in addition to their value as great examples of Mitchell’s work.
