From: Atlas Historique. A fine folio map with California as an island. All five of the Great Lakes are present; but Lake Erie is unnamed. The Ohio River is shown, but unnamed. The Pacific Northwest is blank north of Mendocin. Two large tables give a detailed account of the affiliations of the native inhabitants and the colonial authority throughout the area with a location key. A good impression on a fine sheet of hand-laid paper with watermark and full margins. Very tiny hole in Bahamas.
