Nieuwe Kaart van de Grootbrittannische Volkplantingen in Noord America waar in Tevens de Fransche Bezittingen en de Landen, Tusschen die Beide Volken in Geschil Staande en de Wederzydsche Pretensien Duidelyk Aangewezen Worden

Dutch map of America and parts of Canada east of the Mississippi based largely on the famous John Mitchell map. It shows rivers, lakes, mountains, settlements, cities, Native American land, forts, and the boundaries between European claims. British claims are extended west to the Mississippi as they are in the Mitchell map. Numerous notes appear throughout the map, explaining the borders and the history of the British in North America. Faint off setting is apparent on this copy; a common printers mistake when a map is folded or placed on another before the ink is fully dry. |
