This early map of the state was published in John Stockdale's 1794 London edition of Morse’s The American Geography, the first detailed compilation of maps focusing on the individual states and territories of the United States. It is among the first maps of the state to be published after the American Revolution. Details are sparse aside from the delineation of counties, rivers, and Lake Champlain. County configuration is current to 1790, with only seven counties: Chittenden, Orange, Addison, Rutland, Windsor, Bennington, and Windham; there is no sign of the counties of Franklin, Orleans, Caledonia, and Essex in the north. Engraved by I. Mutlow.
