About This Item
Amsterdam: Covens & Mortier, 1730. Very Good, central fold reinforced. Notes: Second state.
"De L'Isle's careful research resulted in the first mpa of Canada to present the whole of the Great Lakes correctly. In addition, the postion of the lakes relative to Hudson Bay is also correct, and the Avalon Peninsula is shown much more realistically than on previous maps of Canada. Of considerable significance, the geography of the coastal regions of James and Hudson Bays, together with their major river systems, is presented by De L'Isle with a surprising degree of accuracy." (Kershaw)
, Size : 495x575 (mm), 19.49x22.64 (Inches), Coloring: Hand Colored in Outline, Reference: Kershaw vol.1, 318
