"The gold fields of four Territories, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah and Arizona unite in the centre of the Map, comprising the southern portions of the various mountain ranges generally called the Rocky Mountains."A delicate tint was ruled over the whoe plate to give the effect of a plaster model of the country." (Cartographer Baron F.W. Von Egloffstein.) Of this map it is written: ".It is one of the most beautiful maps ever published by the Army.A number of explorers' routes are shown, in addition to Macomb's route.This is a landmark map for various reasons. First, because it is the first to show a trail to the junction of the Green and the Grand. Second, because it is the culmination of Egloffstein's method of ruling maps and applying acid for varying times to convey the idea of altitude. And, third, because of the numerous trails of other explorers contained on it. It will stand for a long time as perhaps the finest map produced by this curious and revealing, yet evanescent, method." (. "Publication of this report was intended for 1861, but the Civil War compelled a delay of fifteen years." (Howes, M-179; Wheat 983).

Macomb led an expedition northwest from Santa Fe along the Old Spanish Trail in search of a route for transporting military supplies into Utah, eventually reaching the confluence of the Green and Grand rivers. Most of the text is J. S. Newberry's geological report. F. B. Meek contributed descriptions of Cretaceous fossils. Publication of the report was delayed until 1876 because of the Civil War. A fascinating report known for its detailed map and striking chromolithographic plates including the view of Shiprock that Farquhar called "one of the most pleasing of the scenic views made in that epoch."

This publication is considered by many to be a geographical continuation of the Ives report, although the gap of the Grand Canyon is not filled in. Newberry was the geologist for both expeditions. According to Farquhar, "The Lithograph of Shiprock is one of the most pleasing of the scenic views made in that epoch."

Hardcover. 1st Edition. 4to., (12 x 9 ½ inches). Large folding lithographic map of "Explorations and Surveys in New Mexico and Utah. 1860" (slightly toned), 11 fine chromolithographic and 11 lithographic plates. Contemporary brown cloth, spine gilt (extremities a bit worn). Provenance: With the contemporary manuscript ownership inscription of "E. Z. Steeven, 1st Lieut. & Adjutant 3rd Cavalry." First edition. Publication of this report was originally intended for 1861, but the Civil War intervened and prevented publication for another fifteen years. The expedition under Macomb went west from Santa Fe across northern New Mexico and Arizona to the Colorado and "showed conclusively that no feasible supply route existed leading into the Great Basin from that direction. However, in the realm of geography and geology its implications were considerable. The whole drainage of the San Juan had been traced and the relationship of that river with the Colorado clearly established. More important, they had also established that the Green River united with the Grand to form the Colorado. The entire maze of intricate canyon country had been threaded, and its geography revealed for the first time. In addition, Newberry was able to establish numerous stratigraphic columns, and to trace the Triassic, Jurassic, and Carboniferous strata far out across the Colorado River. Newberry introduced a new level of sophistication into the study of western geology. Of Newberry it might be said that more than any other scientist since Frémont he had opened up new and unknown country to the civilized world" (Goetzmann, "Army Exploration in the American West"). Alliot, p. 144. Graff 2647. Howes M179.
