1904 "Atlas to Accompany Monograph XXXII on the Geology of Yellowstone National Park" by Arnold Hague

This is an original 1904 "Atlas to Accompany Monograph XXXII on the Geology of the Yellowstone National Park" by Arnold Hague. Published by the Department of the Interior, the Atlas consists of 27 elephant folio sized sheets, containing 17 single-page and 7 double-page maps. Hague was the geologist in charge of the U.S. Geological Survey's Yellowstone division and oversaw the agency's survey of the park from 1883 to 1889. Mapped in the field by Hague and his team and then printed by Julius Bien in Washington, D.C., this atlas of Yellowstone National Park features a series of topographical maps with geological counterparts. The Atlas is presented here in its original brown cloth boards with gilt titles, and a new archival ¼ leather and cloth clamshell case.  Arnold Hague (1840-1917) was trained as a geologist who attended Yale's Sheffield Scientific School, followed by three years of graduate study in Germany. In 1867, he joined the famous U.S. Geological Exploration of the 40th Paralle
