Title: L'America settentrionale, divisa ne'suoi princpali stati [map of North America]

   Cartographer (personal name): Giorgio Valerio Pasquali, engraver    Height (inches): 7.5   Width (inches): 10.5

   This is one map (page 25) in a collection of 22 maps produced for the London Magazine.  These maps represent a standardized cartography, with fairly faithfully reproduced major features -- both political and physiographic -- throughout.  The labeling is in Italian.  On this map, Canada is shown as the large area northerly with Quebec City/ Montreal.  Some attention is given to colonial possessions.  The polar regions are not well done; a large Mare d'Ouest is obviously in error.  

This map forms part of the Cutter World Map Collection, collection C 003, at the Center of Southwest Studies, Fort Lewis College.
