"Calling this book an atlas was a bit of a misnomer: it is so much more....[It] is a truly incredible overview of the exploration-and with it development-of the region." -- Linda Richards

Publisher's Notes
A one-of-a-kind collection of maps created by the navigators, explorers, and cartographers who first charted the Northwest. Representing four centuries of discovery and exploration, this unique reference book is a must-have for anyone interested in Northwest history. The Historical Atlas of the Pacific Northwest showcases more than 320 original maps, many never before published. Here are the maps of explorers such as Cook, Vancouver, Bodega y Quadra, Mackenzie, Thompson, and Lewis and Clark. Here too are maps created during boundary disputes, land purchases, the plotting of town sites, and surveys for railroads. Combined with historical background, these maps take the reader on an amazing visual journey through the discovery and development of the Northwest.
