Description
8vo, pamphlet format, later blue wrappers, seven engraved maps. Scattered foxing and browning, heavy in some places. Some folds at edges, a couple of small holes, map of the United States split at center fold about half way up, paper spine gone. This work was a children\'s atlas, which contains no text, and was meant to accompany Willetts Easy Grammar of Geography. The atlas shows the United States as not really going past Illinois at this point, and a significant part of the Southwest is shown as part of Mexico. Much of the upper Midwest is part of what is referred to as the Missouri Territory. Even the eastern part of the U.S. indicates some territories belong to the Indians. The map of Frica shows little detail, indicating very large unexplored areas. Willetts is best known for his map of New York State (1815). Rumsey 1210.

Description
Barre, Massachusetts: Imprint Society, (1973). One of a Limited Edition of 1950. Signed by the Illustrator.

From Introduction: In the fall of 1742 there occurred in the back country of Virginia one of those unpremeditated, meaningless clashes between an Iroquois hunting party and some white settlers that so often threatened or broke the peace of the North American colonies. Who fired the first shot was not at first clear, but because an Indian war in Virginia would inevitably draw in Pennsylvania, the governor of this province in January 1743 sent Conrad Weiser, the Province interpreter, to Shamokin to assure the Iroquois representative there of the continuance of Brother Onas’ friendship and to appeal to the Six Nations not to take the warpath. Reared among the Iroquois of New York, a Mohawk by adoption, Weiser spoke the Indians’ language, understood and observed their customs, and enjoyed their confidence. For ten years as Pennsylvania’s “ambassador to the Indians” -- his own accurately descriptive term -- Weiser had served them and his own people with rare intelligence, selflessness, and integrity. In his urgent mission to the Iroquois in the winter of 1743 Weiser succeeded in allaying the Indians’ anger and resentment. The next summer, on behalf of the governor of Virginia, who offered the Iroquois a present to remove the hatchet from their heads, he travelled to the Council seat of the Six Nations at Onondaga. On this journey he was accompanied by two acquaintances, John Bartram and Lewis Evans...
