| Summary | "A Literary & Historical Atlas of America" by J. G. Bartholomew is a comprehensive reference work likely written in the late 19th century. This atlas intricately blends geographical, historical, and literary knowledge of North and South America, showcasing the evolution of these regions from early exploration to contemporary times. It aims to depict the rich tapestry of America's history through a visual representation of maps and accompanying commentary. At the start of the atlas, the introduction highlights the intent to chronicle the substantial growth of the United States and its neighboring territories, referencing General Hamilton's earlier remarks on American potential. The text emphasizes the significance of various geographic and historic landmarks, introducing maps that trace early settlements, notable explorers, and key battlefields. It sets the stage for a detailed exploration of both familiar and lesser-known aspects of the Americas, offering insights into literary connections with historical locations, such as Concord's association with Emerson, Hawthorne, and Thoreau.
