Delisle was renowned for the precision of his maps and the veracity he demanded of the information they were to include. DeLisle is important as the first \"scientific\" cartographer who incorporated the most current information on exploration and topography into his maps. His maps of America contain many innovations: discarding the fallacy of California as an island, first naming of Texas, first correct delineation of the Mississippi Valley, and first correct longitudes of America.  Lloyd Brown states that DeLisle \"undertook a complete reform of a system of geography that had been in force since the second century, and by the time he was twenty five he had very nearly accomplished his purpose.\"  \u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003eDelisle produced a number of these composite atlases, a practice continued after Buache married DeLisle's daughter in 1720 and was himself a geographer and publisher who reissued maps of DeLisle and Jaillot. According to an included 1983 letter from the British Library, the present collection is comparable to the 1763 copy recorded in Phillip's List of Geographical Atlases in the Library of Congress and the 1755 edition in the British Library at Maps 37.f.17.  Most notably, the present atlas contains a number of important maps of the Americas: 'Hemisphere septentrionale' (1714); Carte de la Louisiane et du cours du Mississippi (1718); 'Carte du Canada ou de la nouvelle France' (1703); 'Carte du Mexique et de la Floride' and 'Carte du la terre ferme du Peron du Brazil, du Pays Amazones' (both 1703).

The \u003ci style=\"\"\u003eCarte de la Louisiane et du cours du Mississippi \u003c\/i\u003e(1718), which Taliaferro calls ​\"one of the most significant maps of America ever made,\" covers the territory from the Hudson River in the east and the Rio Grande in the west, and among its many distinctions, provides a relatively accurate depiction of the watershed of the Mississippi, and is the first to use the name Texas. As one of the most important and influential maps of the 18th Century, this map is considered to be the main source of all subsequent maps of the Mississippi and the Western regions of the United States. The present example is further of note as being the second issue,  with the name \"New Orleans\" added and thus the first ever map to show the name New Orleans, being seen on the  inset map in the lower right corner bearing the title \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"\"\u003eCarte Particuliere des Embouchures de la Rivie.

Controversially, Delisle blatantly included Florida within the boundaries of French-controlled Louisiana and showed decreased British territorial holdings along the Atlantic coast. Additionally, the map labels Carolina after its “namesake” King Charles IX of France (1550-1574): \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"\"\u003eainsi nommez en l’honneur de Charles 9.

By the French who discovered it, took possession of it, and so established”]. In reality, the British were the first Europeans to arrive in the Carolinas, naming the region after their King Charles II (1630-1685). These slights sparked political outrage, prompting the British and Spanish governments to issue their own maps in order to correct such egregious territorial claims.\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"\"\u003eDelisle also alludes to considerable conflict involving Native peoples.

It is unclear how much of this destruction and displacement can be credited to Europeans, and how much to other Native tribes; south of Lake Erie, Delisle notes the destruction of the \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"\"\u003eNation du Chat\u003c\/em\u003e (the Erie People) at the hands of the Iroquois.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"\"\u003eSignificantly, Delisle's \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"\"\u003eCarte de la Louisiane \u003c\/em\u003emarks the first appearance of any variant of the name “Texas'' on a printed map: a small string of text reading \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\" style=\"\"\u003eMission de los Teijas etablie en 1716\u003c\/em\u003e appears along the banks of the Trinity River. The map’s immense accuracy in regards to the Mississippi and its tributary rivers cemented it as the region’s prototypical map, a status which it held through the end of the eighteenth century.

A great deal of the map is based on Franquelin Joliet’s expeditions (1673- in New France, which covered the northern parts of the Mississippi and the Great Lakes as well as New Foundland and Labrador. To the lower left Delisle records the speculative explorations of the Baron Louis Armand de Lahonton. Lahonton (1666–1715) was a French military officer commanding the fort of St. Joseph, near modern day Port Huron, Michigan. Abandoning his post to live and travel with local Chippewa tribes, Lahonton claims to have explored much of the Upper Mississippi Valley and even discovered a heretofore unknown river, which he dubbed the Longue River. This river he claims to have followed a good distance from its convergence with the Mississippi. Beyond the point where he himself traveled, Lahonton wrote of further lands along the river described by his guides. These include a great saline lake or sea (ghosted in here) at the base of a low mountain range. This range, he reported, could be easily crossed and from this point further rivers flowed westward to the mysterious lands of the Mozeemleck, and presumably the Pacific. This would have intrigued both the French and the English who were disparate to find a suitable route to the Pacific in order to trade their furs and other products with China and the Far East.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Schubertiade Music and Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46093796311199,"sku":"21909","price":20000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0512\/4826\/7423\/files\/Delisle_2C_Guillaume_Composite_Atlas._1700-1745_21909e.jpg?v=1722190424"},{"product_id":"23441-dickens-charles-charles-dickens-necessaire-de-voyage-box-taken-with-him-on-his-travels","title":"[Dickens, Charles.

Also on the train was a coffin containing the body of Lincoln’s son Willie, who had died in 1862 at the age of 11 of typhoid fever during Lincoln’s second year in office. Willie’s body had been disinterred from a plot in Washington, D.C. after Lincoln’s death so he could be buried alongside his father at the family plot in Springfield.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe train traveled through more than 400 cities and towns in 7 states and scheduled stops were published in newspapers. The were 13 major stops, and at each stop, Lincoln’s coffin was taken off the train, placed on an elaborately decorated horse-drawn hearse, and led by solemn processions to a public building for viewing. In cities as large as Columbus, Ohio and as small as Herkimer, New York, thousands of mourners flocked to pay tribute to the slain president. In Philadelphia, Lincoln’s body lay in state on in the east wing of Independence Hall, the same site where the Declaration of Independence was signed. It was reported that in some cities, people had to wait more than five hours to pass by the coffin. Perhaps more moving than the grand spectacles of collective mourning, though, were the private moments of sorrow exhibited by those who traveled from miles around to camp along the railroad tracks, seeking a momentary glimpse of the presidential coffin through the railcar’s windows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor mile upon mile, men took off their hats and bowed their heads as the train passed. Women whispered prayers. Choirs sang hymns. Through the dead of night, bonfires alongside the tracks illuminated the way westward. After a 24-hour public viewing in the Illinois state capitol, Lincoln’s coffin was finally closed on the morning of May 4. Following the burial at Oak Ridge Cemetery, which included an hour-long eulogy, the coffins of father and son were placed inside a limestone vault and the doors and iron grating shuttered.
