Cuba: American map of Cuba, colour-coded according to district; the Great Bahama Bank and the Bahama Islands are also included. Lithographic engraving by Samuel Augustus Mitchell (1790-1868), 1872
Samuel Augustus Mitchell (1790-1868) was an American geographer born in Connecticut. He first worked as a teacher before eventually focusing his time on publishing geographical maps and textbooks, a subject he had become involved in after realising that what geographical resources available to teachers were of poor quality. He moved to Philadelphia in either 1829 or 1830, where he founded his company, publishing materials that covered all genres of geography.
