Any 1800's Rand McNally's atlases of this ilk are increasingly difficult to acquire. There are a plethora of the much sought after colored old state and world maps. The encyclopedia portion of this text is really fascinating as it details alphabetically various things - this book starts in the F's with Fo'rum and fossils and ends with zygophyllaceae, then has old color maps. What a cool find!
