REMARKS ON THE DISPUTED NORTH-WESTERN BOUNDARY OF NEW BRUNSWICK, BORDERING ON THE UNITED STATES OF NORTH AMERICA, WITH EXPLANATORY SKETCH.
Yule, Patrick:
London: James Ridgway and Sons, 1838. 28pp. plus partially colored folding map. Old plain wrappers. Wrapper edges a bit chipped. Some minor marginal dust soiling. Else just about very good, untrimmed. Captain Yule of the Royal Engineers reports on a northeastern boundary dispute between Great Britain and the United States. The disputed territory lay northwest of New Brunswick. Yule argues that the area in dispute is of no use to Maine or the United States, and yet is essential to the security of the British North American colonies. The folding map shows New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and most of Maine, with the disputed area colored. TPL 2240. SABIN 106225.
