"Amerique Septentrionale", Bellin, Jacques Nicolas

Nice map with good detail of topographical features. There is a dotted line from the Missouri River to the Straits of Juan de Fuca alluding to the supposed Northwest Passage. The Canadian lakes, Lac Gouinipique and Lac Bourbon are very oversized and appear to be the source of the Mississippi. Several notations concern recent discoveries. Map depicts all of the Atlantic with a good bit of Europe and Africa as well. Issued folding, now flat and professionally encapsulated in archival Mylar.
