1st edition was 1831. Later editions dropped Dower's name from the title but kept it on the maps. Also known as Teesdale's Atlas. Compare to the 1844 edition. Tanner used the Mountain and Rivers plate in his New Universal Atlas of 1834-36. Atlas is newly bound in half leather black cloth covered boards with “Dower's General Atlas. 1836" stamped in gilt on the spine. Maps hand painted with outline color. Showing administrative divisions, cities and towns, roads, rivers, lakes and canals.
