Reissue of Fenner's Pocket atlas 1830. See Tooley Dict. p 206 - Fenner, R. The U.S. map runs to the west coast, Alabama Territory indicates a pre 1820 original map -- was there an issue of this atlas before the 1830 issue? The t-p refers to the peace treaty of 1815. Roger Baskes has the 1830 and this 1835 ed. The mountain and rivers plates is exceptional. David Rumsey Collection copy lacks pt. 1, pl. 9 "England"; duplicate copy of pt. 2, pl. 9 "Persis, Parthia, Armenia, etc."
