"Persia with Part of the Ottoman Empire" by G. Long, M.A., 1831. "Published Under the Superintendence of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge" Engraved by J. & C. Walker. 13 1/2" x 16 1/2". A wonderful map of the Iraq/Iran area. At the western edge is the River Euphrates flowing through "Irak" and into the Persian Gulf with the "Bahrein" coast shown as far south as the Quatar peninsula and Oman. Continues as far east as the eastern border of Iran (labelled "Khorassan"). There are many interesting annotations on the map (e.g. "36 days jouney from Yezd to Dooshak for a loaded camel") and much other detail. Condition: Some agetoning and some light spotting, one brown spot that looks like a drip of a coffee, otherwise very good condition. Note: Scan does not show margins of map.
