1834 Hooker Map of the State of Coahuila and Texas
Sale Price:$14.65 Original Price:$24.65
This map was published shortly before the Texas Revolution and was used by Mary Austin Holley in 1831 for her book about Texas. She tried unsuccessfully to get the rights from Henry Tanner to use her cousin, Stephen F. Austin’s map of Texas of 1830. Hooker’s map clearly identifies empresario grants just prior to the Revolution while Texas was still a province of Mexico. The border is shown east of the Rio Grande River. The northern border is limited by “Oregon Territory” and Western Texas cartography is scant.
