Two maps on a large sheet surrounded by text. The map of North America is about 8 x 9" and South America is 7 x 9". In the United States there is a large North West Territory and Arkansas Territory with the rest of the West unnamed. Mexico extends through Texas, the Southwest and California. Alaska is not shown, but the map extends to a names Pr. Williams Sound. A colorful, handsome map that shows much better than the condition suggests.
