Depicting the large and awkward range of the German Confederation has always been a challenge for Johnson. This is one of Johnson's earliest attempts, dividing the region into four separate maps, Germany 1, 2, and 3, and a separate Prussia sheet. Various towns, cities, railways, rivers and several other topographical features are noted with relief shown by hachure. This map features the strapwork style border common to Johnson's atlas work from 1860 to 1863. Published by A. J.
