Description:

Rich full color example of this interesting map of Peru, from the second edition of Carey & Lea's Atlas.

 One of the first separate maps of the newly independent Peru, which was still steeped in Revolution under the irrepressible work of San Martin. The map is surrounded by details on the country, its soil, climate, history, populations, city information, government and a host of other historical and political details. Carey & Lea's Atlas is highly prized not only for its cartographic information but the marvelous information about each of the states and territories which is included. The atlas was issued in 6 editions in English, French & German between 1822 and 1827.
