Hardcover. Small 4to. Burgundy cloth clamshell case with gilt spine lettering housing 23 large foldout maps (as issued). Floral pastedowns. Very good. Case slightly edgeworn and a bit rubbed, with mild cracking along outer edges (though expert archival inner lining maintains case shape and integrity); maps very good to near fine, with no separations evident. First edition of this scarce accompaniment to the "Report Upon the Prevention of Overflow of the Little Wabash and Skillet Fork Rivers," a 40pp study authored by W.J. McEathron, Leroy Lemayne Hidinger and others in 1911. The Little Wabash River is a 240-mile-long tributary of the Wabash River in southern Illinois and Skillet Fork a 98-mile-long tributary of the Little Wabash. Together they are part of the watershed of the Mississippi River. Lacks the 40-page clothbound report, but a superb and complete detailed map grouping.
