This Revolutionary War-era map appeared as plate 1 in Michel Rene Hilliard d'Auberteuil's Essais Historiques et Politiques. It covers the New England region from Long Island and Connecticut north to New Hampshire (including present-day Vermont) and Maine, here called Main Sagadahok. The map's primary emphasis is on the numerous forts in the area, with significant concentrations present in western Massachusetts and Maine. Basic topography and the river systems are also depicted.
