Huge map of North America and the Caribbean showing the political divisions and colonial possessions with a color key at bottom. Brue prepared the maps for Louis de Onis's "Memoir upon the Negotiations between Spain and the United States which led to the Treaty of 1819" and this map reveals the careful details characteristic of his work. The boundary between the U.S. and Canada reflect American interests into British Columbia. In the West, an interesting novelty is shown with L. Timpanagos, L. Teguayo ou Sale, and R. S. Philippe ou del Colorado connected by a dotted line and providing a river passage to the Pacific. A keyboard style border surrounds the extremely handsome map. Brue's maps were widely distributed as evidenced by the imprints of distributors in Berlin, Manheim, Vienna, Zurich, London and Milan noted in the bottom margin.
