"Mexico, or New Spain, in Which the Expedition of Cortes May Be Traced", Hall, Sidney

This reduced version of Kitchin's map first published in 1777 provides excellent detail in the Southwest and extends along the southern coast to Florida. Texas is a part of the larger region of San Luis Potosi. It shows the range of the Apache, Hopi (Moqui), Teguas, Chocktaw tribes, and a few more. Good watershed and topographical detail. Northern California is New Albion and the area to the east is blank. The Great Salt Lake is alluded to with a shaded area labeled "Lake the western limits of which are unknown." The map includes the inset "Environs of Mexico City," which details the bridges in the Lake of Mexico.
