Description
Kashnor notes: "An exceedingly rare map locating as far up the Hudson River as New Albanie; locates Fort Elsinborough on the Delaware, and takes in the coast from Cape Henry to Boston."

Atlantic Ocean is named "Sea of the English Empire." Submap: Entry to New York Harbor.. Relief: pictorial. Graphic Scale: Miles. Projection: Cylindrical. Watermark: II. Printing Process: Copper engraving. Other Features: Sub-maps. References: McCorkle 680.4. Verso Text: MS notes: 105/582.
