Bonne - Map of part of Canada, Hudson Bay
This attractive map is from Rigobert Bonne's Amerique published in Paris in 1774 by Lattre.
Bonne was an important French cartographer. He succeeded Jacques Nicolas Bellin as the Royal Hydrographer at the Depot of La Marine in 1773. He published several important charts and maps in the late 18th century. Bonne's maps trended more towards the scientific and practical and eschewed the ornate details. This set the new standard for cartography.
Map featured:
États-Unis de l'Amérique
This early colonial map details the United States and the French Louisiana. It extends west to the Padouca Indians region, along the Missouri, and includes most of Texas. It adds a lot of detail to the Missouri & Mississippi River Valleys. It also draws the early borders of the Colonies including Georgia, the Carolinas, and Virginia (but with territory extending to the Mississippi). It also shows French Forts and Fur Trading Posts indicative of all the French activity and exploration of this time. It details the Midwest & Great Lakes and gives care to name the Indian places. It shows Florida as an Archipelago.
