NOUVELLE CARTE DES ETATS-UNIS... 1839

A. H. Brue, revised by Ch. Picquet, Paris
Original outline color, folding, 24x37 inches

A large, scarce folding map in attractive pastel color, mounted on linen, showing the United States and part of Canada, from east of the Texas Panhandle (called Nouv. Mexique ou Santa-Fe) and with seven insets of major cities and regions -- the largest a map of the West. There are many "Districts" -- Osage, Ozark, Mandan, Huron, Sioux and a Northwest Territory. Throughout the map are lengthy notes in French about the characteristics of the various regions, their inhabitants, rivers and exploration. Very good condition; folds reinforced on the linen backing. Good margins.
