Image: 1827 Finley Map of Vermont - Geographicus - Vermont-finely-1827

Description: A beautiful example of Finley's important 1827 map of Vermont. Depicts the state with moderate detail in Finley's classic minimalist style. Shows river ways, roads, canals, and some topographical features. Offers color coding at the county level. Title and scale in lower right quadrant. It is very uncommon to find an early 19th century exclusively depicting Vermont, as most maps of the period bundled it with New Hampshire. Identifies Killington Peak and Camel's Hump, now popular ski resorts. Engraved by Young and Delleker for the 1827 edition of Anthony Finley's General Atlas .
Title: Vermont.
