Antique Century Atlas with General Index
This is an 1899 copy of *The Century Atlas* with a general index. The atlas features detailed maps with intricate decorative borders and is a fascinating glimpse into cartography at the turn of the 20th century. It would have been a significant resource for understanding the world at that time, showcasing geographical knowledge and political boundaries as they were then.
