This fascinating map is filled with information relating to Pennsylvania's development. The most prominent feature is the use of color to show the acquisition of Indian lands from 1718-1784. The map also locates numerous old forts and battlefields, Indian villages, and trails. To the left of the main image is a representation of an Indian map of the West Branch of the Susquehanna, hieroglyphics, and a series of carved figures. Included with the map is the title page from the report. Published by the Historical Society of Pennsylvania.
