Description

Rare early map of the newly created United States, with a note which includes 10 new proposed states proposed by Thomas Jefferson--Silvania,Michigania, Chersonesus, Arsenistpia, Metropotamia, Illinoia, Saratoga, Washington, Polypotamia, and Pelisypia. The map is highly detailed, extending to the Rio Grande and including notes on the Siox Indians and the Country of the Padoucas. Extensive notes throughout, including notes on early explorers such as De Soto and La Sale, Indians, Forts and other points of early interest. The map appeared primarily in late editions of DeVaugondy's Atlas, re-issued by Delamarche. A nice example in full color. Karpinski CIII; Seller & Van Ee 187 (Boudet variant ed.).
