Note:
A group of five full color maps and a view of the U.S. Capital, plus two female figures. The largest map is the Complete Map of the Rail Roads..., which shows the eastern United States with all the railroads in operations and projected. This is a Civil War map in its focus, and typically Magnus in its packing together several maps and views. Another edition, not listed, adds soldiers to the left and right of the main map, illustrating Hardee's tactics (of fighting). The large map is entered in 1859, and the whole production is entered in 1861.
