24 1/2" x 18 3/4". Engraving with outline hand coloring. A fine dark impression of this sought after map.

A handsome map which depicts the bounds of the Carolinas and Virginia extending all the way to the Mississippi. The inset at the top left gives a detailed map of the Georgia and South Carolina coasts. This attractive map depicts the post 1763 Treaty of Paris eastern colonies between the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers and the Atlantic, plus a small part of Upper Canada. It provides exceptional detail throughout. The map tracks the course of the Ohio from its confluence with the Mississippi to its headwaters in New York. The Old Northwest and Ohio are dominated by Indian Tribes. The information used on this map was garnered from indigenous sources immediately prior to the commencement of the French and Indian War. The map is especially noteworthy for its Transappalachian information.
