This rarely seen map is based on John Melish's map of 1816 and comes from the Swedish atlas produced by A.L. Klinckowstrom and published circa 1824. It covers the southern part of the United States from the Missouri Territory to the Atlantic, including most of Virginia and the southern tips of Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio. The Bahama Islands are detailed, with one of the islands noted as the Center of the World. The map shows the Gulf Stream, roads, forts, and settlements in Missouri Territory. The populations of the states, territories, and the Bahama islands are noted in an inset at the lower left.
