This is the second state of this map with the lengthened title of this early and infrequently offered map. The names Philadelphia and New York are newly added, as are numerous names along the Susquehanna, the Delaware and in New Jersey. Legend keyed to map identifies 24 towns and cities where space prevented their appearing directly on the map.
