This finely engraved map spans the northeast from the Chesapeake Bay to Lake Champlain and the Bay of Fundy, and extends west to the Country of the Iroquois. Delaware is part of Pennsylvania, and New Jersey is divided into East and West Jersey. The St. Lawrence River is shown emanating from an enormous Lake Ontario. One notation tells of the inhumane murder of Col. Schuyler by the French and Indians in 1746, near Soratogo (Saratoga). Cape Cod is depicted as an island. There is a large decorative cartouche and compass rose.
