An uncommon map of New England covering the eastern seaboard from Maryland to Nova Scotia with an inset of Newfoundland. Only one Great Lake is shown and named "The Lake of the Herekoys - Lac des ou Iroquois". Place names along the coasts, but no other details. Title cartouches and compass rose embellish the map. Crisp impression with a couple of faint spots, overall very good.
