This complete “atlas” contains five maps showing mostly mining claims and was published by W.H. Shearer in San Francisco. The maps cover a region in southwestern Nevada where gold and silver deposits were newly discovered, “from 50 to 150 miles wide, extending south by east from Reno, and following, generally speaking, the sweep o the Sierra Nevada mountain range.” The list of maps include:

Goldfield Mineral Map, printed color (23.0 x 24.0"). Condition: Fine. (A+)
Map of Tonopah Mining District Nevada, printed color (25.0 x 24.0"). Condition: There is a short binding tear at left that just enters the border. (B+)
Map of Bullfrog Mining District Nye County Nevada, black & white (34.7 x 22.3"). Condition: There is minor creasing and a short edge tear at left. (B+)
Goldfield-Columbia Townsite Esmeralda County Nevada, black & white (23.0 x 21.0"). Condition: Fine. (A+)
Map of Tonopah, Goldfield and Bullfrog Mining Districts and Region Adjacent, black & white (23.3 x 23.0"). Condition: This map is laid in, with numerous short splits at the fold junctions, two 1.5" edge tears at bottom, and a pair of fold separations that extend 1-1.25" into the image at top. (B)

The accompanying 93 pages of text describe the region and its mineral wealth, state mining laws, and includes a comprehensive 48-page business directory. Advertisements for local businesses are interspersed throughout. Hardbound in black cloth with gilt title on the front cover. Printed by Rand McNally in Chicago.

A classic atlas and directory of the Nevada mining districts issued shortly after the precious metals rush at the turn of the 20th century.
