Title: Le Vieux Mexique ou Nouvelle Espagne avec les costes De La Floride . . . 1705

Map Maker: Nicholas De Fer

Description:

Interesting regional map of Florida, Texas, the Gulf Coast, the Southwest, Mexico and Central America, from the second edition of De Fer's Atlas Curieux. 

De Fer's map includes notes along the coastline reflecting the discovery of the mouth of the Mississippi by La Salle and his time in Texas in 1685.  Longitudinal notes in the lower cartouche. Excellent detail in Mexico and Central America and along the coast of Florida. Extends North on the Rio Grande to Santa Fe. Names name Pascogoula (Pascobula), Biloxi (Biloky), Mobile and Biscayne Bays. This map was not bound into all editions of the Atlas Curieux and tends to be scarcer than the other North American maps by De Fer.
