This atlas was issued as a companion to a set of letters by Baron Klinckowström, a Swedish nobleman, on the United States, written in Swedish for readers at home. Its title places it within the late nineteenth-century vogue of Scandinavian travel writing about America, when many Swedes were emigrating and curious readers wanted both firsthand impressions and reliable geography. The catalog record gives no date, and the attribution rests on an unverified shelflist card, so the exact year and the author's role in the atlas remain uncertain. Atlases paired with travel letters like this one show how maps and narrative worked together to help readers picture a distant country.
