A striking 1861 Hermann Berghaus map of the West Indies and Central America. The map depicts the region from the Tehuantepec Isthmus in Mexico to the Leeward Islands and from the Gulf Coast of the United States to northern South America. Published near the height of the mid-19th century European race for colonial acquisition, six different colors are used to highlight British, French, Dutch, Spanish, Danish, and Swedish colonies. The only Swedish colony in the Caribbean at the time was Saint Barthelemy, a small island near Anguilla, Saint Martin, and Barbuda, although it is not correctly colored. An inset map in the upper right corner details the Isthmus of Nicaragua, highlighting the roads throughout the region, particularly along the Pacific coast. An inset of the Isthmus of Panama is included just below the one of Nicaragua and presents in detail the rail line constructed across the isthmus from Colon to Panama City, one of the preferred ways to transfer goods from the Atlantic to the Pacific before the construction of the Panama Canal. There are profile illustrations of the Isthmuses of Panama, Nicaragua, and Tehuantepec in southern Mexico, all three of which were used to transfer goods across Central America, and all three of which were being promoted as potential options for an inter-oceanic canal.
