Engraved map of Eastern North America, hand-colored in outline image 494 x 636 mm (528 x 709 mm sheet). (A few minor marginal tears.)
Bellin's map of North America extends from New England and the Great Lakes to Florida and west to the Mississippi River. Based on Delisle's map of 1718 with additions from notes compiled by the Jesuit priest, explorer and historian, Pierre-Francois-Xavier de Charlevoix, and first published in his Histoire et description generale de la Nouvelle France, Paris, 1744. Many Indian villages, army forts, trading posts, missions, rivers, portages and the Rocky Mountain are named, introducing a unique configuration of Lake Michigan. See Cumming 170.
