Description: 1829 Burr Map of Saratoga County, New York - ORIGINAL Map of the County of Saratoga This map depicts Saratoga County in eastern New York, divided into 18 towns outlined in vivid color. The county is bordered by the Hudson River in the east and the Mohawk River in the south. Saratoga Springs is identified. The map denotes major routes, waterways, and topographical details, and icons label villages, flouring mills, factories, forges, saw mills, and churches. This first edition of Burr's county map appeared in his "Atlas of the State of New York" of the same year, which was the second atlas of an individual state ever published. David H. Burr (1803-1875) served as Topographer to the United States Post Office and Geographer to the House of Representatives and was widely known for his accuracy and attention to detail. His "Universal Atlas" was the first to map each of the United States individually. This map is a lovely rendering of a hard-to-find county in New York State. Original. The map is in good condition with light foxing throughout. Full original margins. Publication: David H. Burr, (New York) 1829. Type: Map. Copper plate engraving with original hand-coloring. Image measures 12 x 17 1/2". ARGOSY BOOK STORE Old & Rare Books, Maps & Prints.
