Title: 'L'Amerique divisée en ses principaux Etats', Paris.

A large uncommon antique map published by Lattré. This map is most notable for it's depiction of Mer ou Baye de L'Quest or Sea of the West. A great sea, easily the size of the Mediterranean, to flow from the then-known Strait of Juan de Fuca. Showing an opening to the ocean from this great sea at roughly in North California or Oregon and Quivira somewhere in Idaho. Fattening Alaska and appropriately leaving blank the unknown parts of Northern America. Listing Indian nations, towns such as Santa Fe.

The map is in fair condition on strong white paper with only a couple of small spots.There are numerous small worm holes and several worm tracks that have been repaired by tape to the verso. These are only noticeable close up and the map should frame up well.

Ref: McLaughlin, California, 10.
