Pub Note:
The important map in this book is Poirson's "Cours De Mississippi Comprenant La Louisiane, Les 2 Florides, Une Partie Des Etas-Unis, et Pays Adjacents." One of the last French maps of Louisiana before it was transferred to the United States. Wheat calls the map "of great interest" in its "display (of) the concept of Louisiana, and especially Missouri, current in French official circles just before the transfer of the Province to the United States." The remainder of the maps, all of which are in outline color, show French holdings throughout the world. Bound with half leather boards, the title on the spine.
