Uncommon map of the southern United States, Mexico and Central America with the independent Republic of Texas. Mexico is divided into states and territories, which are listed in a table at bottom left. The map is filled with Indian names and some interesting spurious topography, and includes a list of mountains. Texas is stated in the legend as comprising an area of 8,000 square miles, with a total population of more than 100,000.
