Note:
The last edition, with the "wings" on the Mississippi and the Northwest. Adds Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Louisiana, Mississippi and Missouri Territory. Many changes to the topography as well. An inset of the Florida Peninsula appears. The northern wing shows the Lake of the Woods and the southern wing shows the mouths of the Mississippi in detail. The delineation of the roads indicates that Bradley's Postal Map of the U.S. may have been used as a source. Outline color by state. Map is in four sheets, each dissected into 12 sections. Sheets fold into a new slip case 26x18 with the original tan covers pasted down with a label reading "J. Le Nesuvier (645) United States" in manuscript.
