This new edition, which draws upon the 1980 census, updates an excellent historical atlas that was first published in 1%5. It includes eighty-three maps, of which perhaps a dozen incorporate new data. Each map is accompanied by a page of text that elucidates the map and often presents additional information. Besides standard historical topics,other subjects such as physiography, natural resources, population, and education are treated cartographically.
