Prussia by Keith Johnston, F.R.S.E. (with) Environs of Berlin, & Potsdam. Engraved & printed by W. & A.K. Johnston, Edinburgh. William Blackwood & Sons, Edinburgh & London, (1861), The royal atlas of modern geography, exhibiting, in, a series of entirely original and authentic maps, the present condition of geographical discovery and research in, the several countries, empires, and states of the world by Alexander Keith Johnston... With a special index to each map. William Blackwood and Sons, Edinburgh and London. MDCCCLXI., First edition. This atlas was one of the best world atlases published in, England in, the second half of the 19th century. The North America map shows Colorado as a Territory - very up to date on U.S. political changes (most U.S. atlases do not show Colorado until 1862) for an English Atlas. Also shows Nevada, and a horizontal Arizona. However, the western U.S. map shows none of this -- its layout is pre-1860. Maps have a mixture of hand colored outline and printed blue color for water. Covers are half leather brown cloth covered boards with "Keith Johnston's royal atlas of modern geography" stamped in, gilt on the cover, and "The Royal Atlas. Keith Johnston. W. Blackwood & Sons" on the spine.
