"STREAM OF TIME, OR CHART OF UNIVERSAL HISTORY," New York, 1827; a unique wall chart graphically representing world history. Cultures are depicted as rivers with major events and rulers as place names, and empires as large lakes. This fascinating chart, with the title engraved on a globe surrounded by clouds, is linen-backed with original rollers. Based on Friedrich Strass’s Der Strom der Zeiten (Vienna, 1812) and updated to the 1850s by R.S. Fisher. Lithograph on two sheets joined.
