This small map of North America served as the frontispiece to Morse's American Gazetteer. Florida is divided into East and West Florida. Sir Francis Drake's Harbor is shown on the coast of present-day California which is labeled New Albion. A prominent River of the West flows into the Pacific at the Entrance of Juan de Fuca and an elaborate, apocryphal Northwest Passage links Hudson Bay with Prince William Sound through a laborious system of rivers and lakes in Canada. The Arctic shoreline is indicated with a dashed line. Engraved by Samuel Hill.
