This uncommon map covers the area from New Jersey to Newfoundland. New England is shown reaching from Connecticut to Novia Scotia, and Massachuset Baay extends from Boston way up into Northern Maine. The map is based on Bonne's similar map of 1782 but is adorned with a delicately engraved title cartouche.
