Völkerkunde). Phillips 217; Sabin 4857; Poggendorff I, p.149; Engelmann 11; Espenhorst (Engl.) 2.7.1.3 and in extenso p.365ff on the production of this 'entirely new type of atlas' by Heinrich Berghaus, which, 'at first intended to be no more than a supplement to the Stieler, quickly grew to be an independent epoch-making work'. Based on concepts and graphical methods developed by i.a. Alexander von Humboldt and Carl Ritter, it contains some very attractive (world) maps and diagrams, all in detailed handcolouring.
