Joseph Hutchins Colton was a prominent American map publisher in the 19th century. He founded J.H. Colton & Company, a publishing house known for producing high-quality maps and atlases during the 19th century. One of his notable works is "Colton's Palestine," which was published in 1859.

"Colton's Palestine" was a map that depicted the historical region of Palestine. This region is of significant importance in religious and historical contexts, particularly for its association with the Bible and the events described therein. The map likely included detailed geographic information, place names, and possibly historical references related to the area.

Joseph Hutchins Colton's maps were known for their accuracy and detail, and they were widely used for educational and reference purposes during the 19th century. His contributions to cartography played a crucial role in making accurate maps and geographical information accessible to the public in the United States during that era.

Joseph Hutchins Colton's maps are still highly regarded by collectors and historians today for their historical significance and craftsmanship. They provide valuable insights into the geography and knowledge of the 19th century.

After Joseph Colton's retirement in the late 1860s, his sons, George Woolworth Colton and Charles B. Colton, continued the map publishing business under the name "G.W. & C.B. Colton." They continued to produce maps and atlases, maintaining the family's reputation for quality cartography.

Joseph Hutchins Colton's work contributed to the development of cartography in the United States during the 19th century, and his maps remain a valuable resource for historians and collectors interested in that period's geography and geographical knowledge.
