Map or Atlas
A New Map of North America
| Detailed map of America east of the Louisiana region. It shows forts, cities, borders and boundary lines, Native American land, the post road, mountains, wetlands, lakes, and rivers. Several forts are given particular prominence, as dotted lines border their place names. Several lines extend between towns and cities in the eastern states, either roads or routes of armies during the American Revolution. A floral frame with a jug pouring out water surrounds the title cartouche. |
