Title: Map of 1820-1860 Africa
Post by: Conquistador on 24 September 2016, 12:50:38 AM
Where had explorers of Africa been in the 1820 to 1860 time frame?  Ideally looking for a map or series of maps to show how the explorations developed over the decades after the End of Napoleonic France to before all the claims made by the 1890s.  Focus is early on, 1820 to 1860.

There is a map in Atlas of World History, preview is on goog books. It is page 205 in case link doesn't open the right page.

Also this might help (from page 22).

I found this (1812 map):
https://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/History_of_Africa#European_exploration_and_conquest

There's more potentially in this Google image search ("19th cen africa map"):

Ordered the atlas from Amazon and it arrived today.  Exactly what I was looking for!
