Descripci�n

Wagner / Safford / 1855 / [ Including First Geological Map of Tennessee ] A Geological Reconnaissance of the State of Tennessee (with map:) Geological Map of the State of Tennessee, Prepared With Reference To The Development of the Mineral & Agricultural Resources of the State, By Jas. M. Safford, A.M., State Geologist (Cupboard 1, 108463) Ocatvo. Early 20th-century cloth, leather spine label. 164 pages plus folding lithograph map. Complete. Map detached and laid in the book. A few woodcut diagrams in the text. Text and map in excellent condition. Only a few tiny separations at intersections of folds of the map. The First Comprehensive Geological Study of Tennessee Rare Nashville printing of James M. Safford's Geological Map of Tennessee, lithographed by J. Wagner, complete with James Safford's extremely rare work on the Geology of Tennessee, entitled A Geological Reconnaissance of the State of Tennessee; Being the Author's First Biennial Report . . . (Nashville: G. C. Torbett & Co., 1856). Safford's work provided the first in-depth analysis of the state s geological features and natural resources. In the book, Safford described the stratigraphy, mineral deposits, and overall geological composition of Tennessee, offering insights that would later inform his more detailed work in Geology of Tennessee (1869). The present 1856 publication was critical in bringing attention to Tennessee s geological wealth, particularly its rich deposits of phosphate and iron ore, which would play significant roles in the state s economic development. The section on iron includes a table of the iron ore furnaces operating in Tennessee, listing the firm names and owners. There are also chapters on copper and lead & zinc. The lithographer, James E. Wagner, was an artist who worked in Nashville from 1840 to 1860, and exhibited his work at the Capitol in 1858 with what the Tennessee Historical Society called "some of our very best artists." Wagner also produced lithographs of Nashville in the years leading up to the Civil War, including an 1858 view of Nashville's Zollicoffer Bridge and levee on the Cumberland River. The woodcut geological diagrams that illustrate the text were made by a local Nashville artist, H. Bosse. Rarity While a later geological map of Tennessee by Safford (1869), published by Taintor Brothers occasionally appears on the market, this is only the second time we have ever seen the first edition of Safford's map offered for sale. The last example of Safford's A Geological Reconnaissance of the State of Tennessee . . . to appear in a dealer catalog listed by RBH was in 1968 (Goodspeeds), previous to that 1912 (Merwin Clayton). The last example at auction was in 1905 (Anderson Galleries).
