This anonymous small map is based upon Aaron Arrowsmith's large map of North America issued in 1802. It shows the United States extending to the Mississippi River with a large Louisiana and New Mexico to its west. The map is pre-Lewis & Clark with several possible Missouri River tributaries stopping just short of the Rocky Mountains, which extend far into northern Canada. Alaska is still in a rudimentary form and notations in far northern Canada indicate the sea was seen by Hearn (1771) and MacKenzie (1789).
