Description
Separately issued map of the northeastern part of the United States and Eastern Canada from the Mississippi Valley to the Atlantic Seaboard, published during the French and Indian War.
State two of two, now with an inset of Lake Champlain's Fort Frederick (Fort Saint-Frederic) or Crown Point.
According to Lloyd Brown in Early Maps of the Ohio Valley, "one of the earliest attempts to indicate the topography of the Ohio Valley and the surrounding country as well as the dense forests and mountain ranges. The use of fine shading and hachures to indicate relief is unusual for the period.".
The Great Lakes are derived from Jean Baptiste Bourguignon d'Anville's map of 1746.
Prepared by Johann Christoph Rhode (1713 - 1786) and engraved by Friedrich Gottlieb Berger (1713 - c. 1797).
Reference: Lloyd Brown, Early Maps of the Ohio Valley, #23; Sellers & Van Ee, Maps & Charts of North America & the West Indies 1750-1789, #59; Tooley, Dictionary of Mapmakers, p. 536.

Condition and Coloring
We indicate the condition of each item and use our unnique HiBCoR grading system in which four key items determine a map's value: Historical Importance, Beauty, Condition/Coloring and Rarity.
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.
