This uncommon map shows an embryonic Texas and a small coastal Nouvelle Albion in today's Northern California. Numerous Indian tribes are named. The southern states extend fully to the Mississippi. The Sierra Nevada's run east and west. In South America there is great detail of the river systems, and the mythical Lac Parime still appears in the north.
