Description
North America from the eastern seaboard to the Rocky Mountains. Based on Delisle's map of 1718 with additions from notes compiled by the Jesuit priest, explorer and historian, Pierre-Francois-Xavier de Charlevoix. The map was compiled in part from the Chaussegros de Lery manuscripts and is also noteworthy for the fictitious mountain range in Michigan.
In 1750 and again in 1755, Bellin significantly revised and updated the map, including improved cartographic detail in the Great Lakes. The coverage of the map is also extended further south to show all of Florida.
Bellin attempted to locate the Spanish, French, and British settlements along the eastern seaboard. The coverage of the map is also extended further south to show all of Florida.
All of the English colonies are closely contained east of the Appalachian mountains.
The French cartographers Jacques Nicolas Bellin, Jean-Baptiste Bourguignon d'Anville, and Robert de Vaugondy, John Mitchell's contemporaries, adopted features from his map in their works but added their conceptions of boundaries to counter the British claims : L'Ohio que les Anglais appellent Alliganey. Prior to the outbreak of The French and Indian War the French had begun to seize British Forts on the Monongahela and Ohio rivers. Formal warfare commenced on July 4, 1755, when George Washington's troops were defeated at Fort Necessity (F. de Necessité détruit), and five days later General Braddock's troops were repelled at the battle of the Wilderness below Fort Le Quesne (Fort Duquesne). The Indians placed their allegiance with the French, giving the war the name by which it was called in North America.
Scale ca. 1:5,800,000

Color Key
We offer many maps in their original black and white condition. We do not systematically color-up maps to make them more sellable to the general public or buyer.
Copper engraved or wood block maps are always hand colored. Maps were initially colored for aesthetic reasons and to improve readability. Nowadays, it is becoming a challenge to find maps in their original colors and are therefor more valuable.
We use the following color keys in our catalog:
Original colors; mean that the colors have been applied around the time the map was issued.
Original o/l colors; means the map has only the borders colored at the time of publication.
Colored; If the colors are applied recently or at the end of the 20th century.
