Finely's maps employ a delicate and elegant engraving style and provided extensive topographical and watershed information. He was the dominant map maker in the United States in the early 1820s into the 1830s. His atlases were very successful, outselling rival atlases by Carey & Lea, and Tanner. His maps were printed on high quality paper and were routinely corrected and updated.

This is the first edition of Finley's detailed atlas map of the state. County configuration predates the addition of Warren County in 1824. The map locates the early wagon road network, towns, and settlements of the day. It extends to include Manhattan and Philadelphia. Engraved by Young & Delleker. An essential map for New Jersey collectors.
