Description
This attractive map of Portugal shows the length of the entire country and portions of adjacent Spain, but omits the Cape Verde Islands. Color is used to differentiate between various political divisions and emphasize regional and state borders.
Topography is shown in great detail, and the fine steel engraved text allows for eminently legible labels for place names, rivers, battle sites, mountains, rivers, islands and more. Two scales are included; common leagues of Portugal and Spain and British statue miles.
Published in the 1818 edition of Pinkerton’s Modern Atlas by Thomas Dobson & Company in Philadelphia. Engraving by Samuel Neele.
