The first solo book by celebrated interior designer Anthony Baratta, Decorate Happy showcases Baratta's preppy-chic style in a pattern-filled guide to decorating with verve and style. Anthony Baratta's rooms are happy. Whether they are found in the country or the city, these maximalist rooms are designed to make you smile. In his first solo book, Anthony Baratta, whose work has graced more than fifty magazine covers and been celebrated in the Cooper-Hewitt, shares twelve of his most recent houses, all in their own way perfect examples of his Classic high-color, high-pattern all-American style. Some nod to the historical importance of centuries past, like an eighteenth-century house in Colonial Williamsburg; some are nautical chic.

Antique map titled 'Mapa de la Republica Oriental del Uruguay'. Large and detailed folding map of Uruguay. This monumental map depicts all of Uruguay with unprecedented accuracy and detail. Impressively, it serves the multiple roles of being an advanced topographic, economic and political map, as well as being a meticulous sea chart of the Rio de la Plata and the adjacent waters of the Atlantic. The republic's 20 departments are defined in various colors, while a legend, 'Referencias' identifies symbols representing the locations of departmental capitals, town, roads, railways, public schools and lighthouses, amongst other details. Every single river and stream is delineated and named and the ridges of hills are delicately expressed. The map features four insets, including a large map of the capital, Montevideo, as well as maps of Colonia, Maldonado and Punta del Este and the Island of Flores. The hydrographical information provided is truly profound, and renders the map fit for use in maritime commerce. In 1901, the Uruguayan House of Representatives commissioned the geographer Saturnino Cortesi to employ the most progressive geographical sources, both military and civilian, to devise an authoritative national map of the republic. Cortesi clearly had access to a vast archive of topographical surveys...

This is a historical map showing Spanish possessions in West Africa from the year 1903. The map includes the islands of Fernando Póo (now known as Bioko), part of the modern-day country of Equatorial Guinea, Annobón Island, and the Elobey Islands, along with the Spanish-controlled areas on the continental region near Rio Muni. These territories were part of Spain's colonial empire and are situated in the Gulf of Guinea, off the coast of Central Africa. Fernando Póo (Bioko) is particularly notable for its volcanic origins and as a center of cocoa production during the colonial period. Annobón, lying further southwest of Bioko, is a small volcanic island. The Elobey Islands are very small and located near the coast of Gabon. Here's a brief overview of their significance: 1. **Bioko Island (Fernando Póo)**: The island has a rich biodiversity and is known for its unique flora and fauna, including several endemic species. Malabo, the capital city of Equatorial Guinea, is located here. 2. **Annobón Island**: This remote island has a small population and is known for its isolation and distinctive Creole culture, which has developed independently from the mainland. 3. **Elobey Islands**: These consist of Elobey Grande and Elobey Chico and are situated near the mouths of the Muni and Campo rivers. They were historically important as transit points in river trade...
