Additional Information
Created in 1835, this historic map captures the American East Coast during a period of significant growth and transformation. In the decades following the War of Independence and leading up to the American Civil War, the young nation underwent profound cultural and economic shifts. Technological advancements, including the expansion of robust rail systems, facilitated the rapid growth of urban centers and accelerated the transition from an agrarian society to an industrial economy. Rivers became hubs of activity, powering mills, factories, and large-scale operations that defined the economic landscape of the Eastern United States.
This map was created by Henry Schenck Tanner, a renowned American cartographer born in New York City. Tanner became one of the most prolific mapmakers of the 19th century, known for his distinctive style and meticulous attention to detail. His work provides a window into the past, offering an indelible connection between history and the present while illustrating the evolution of the Eastern United States as industries grew, agricultural products reached urban markets, and trade flourished both domestically and internationally.
Tanner's maps were often compiled into atlases, including his influential 1846 publication, A New Universal Atlas. This collection became an essential resource for understanding global geography, geopolitical boundaries, and the growth and development of nations. Tanner's contributions continue to be celebrated for their accuracy, beauty, and ability to tell the story of an ever-changing world.
