An attractive small map of North America with nice topographical information. Alaska, here called Aliasaka, is still a little misshapen but is beginning to take its correct form. The Pacific Northwest is shown under British control, and the discoveries of Lewis and Clarke are reflected. In the West the R. S. Felipe is shown connecting L. Teguyo with San Francisco Bay. Texas is simply labeled Potosi. The title is enclosed in a landscape cartouche. Lettering by Giraldon.
