Illus: Decorative cartouches around the title and scale.
This map, published in 1700 by G. De L'Isle, was one of the finest and most accurate maps of its time. Consequently it was republished by a variety of publishers between 1700 and 1778. The map shows North America divided into six principal regions. Rivers, lakes, populated areas and other features are shown and named. The tracks of various explorers are also shown. Jeremiah Wolff was a little-known map publisher who died in 1724. Circa 1733 his son-in-law and heir, J. B. Probst, published the same map with his own name added. Since Wolff's name only appears on this map, it has been tentatively dated 1724. Wollf's map is an exact copy of De l'Isle's original map with the exception of the title, which was translated from the French.
