"La Pensilvania, la Nuova York, il Jersey Settentriole, con la Parte Occidentale del Connecticut, Massachusset-s-Bay e l'Irochesia", Zatta, Antonio

This is one sheet of Zatta's version of John Mitchell's epic and important map of the United States. The whole map was titled Le Colonie Unite dell' America Settentrle and was published as a set of twelve individual maps. This fifth sheet covers the northeastern United States and eastern Canada from the Hudson River west to lakes Ontario, Erie and Huron. Pennsylvania is shown extending too far to the north with New York squeezed in to its north and east, and the boundary dispute between New Jersey and New York is prominently depicted. The interior is filled with Indian tribes, trails, forts and settlements, river systems, and copious notations.
