Additional Details



An unusual mapping of the region, with Canada identified in the north just above the Apalachi mountains but without any of the Great Lakes, and with the Mississippi identified as the R. de Spiritu Santo. "This is similar to Mallett['s map of Florida from] 1683, though it is slightly smaller and from a different plate"--Cumming 106.
