"One of the most important maps of the North American continent" - William P.Cumming. This edition published by Covens & Mortier remains unchanged from the original edition of 1718. The first detailed map of the Gulf region and the Mississippi, the first printed map to show Texas [Mission de los Teijas establie en 1716], the first to show the land routes of earlier centuries - De Soto in 1539 and 1540 and his successor Moscoso in 1542, Cavelier in 1687, Tonty in 1702 and the recent routes of Denis in 1713 and 1716. The map had political implications and outraged the English by laying claim to Carolina "so named in honour of Charles 9th by the French who discovered it and took possession and established themselves in 15..." and as a further insult, "Charles Town [Carolina] named by the French Carlefort".

Tooley describes this fine map of North America as 'A foundation map'. The Great Lakes based on Coronelli showing the French strong points at Tadousac, Quebec, Fort Sorel, Montreal & Fort Frontenac. The English settlements confined to the east of the Alleghenies, with Fort and River Kinibeki as the border between New England and Acadia. The Mississippi valley area is shown well developed with the recent French settlement of d'Iberville at Bilochy and forts at Bon Secours and St. Louis. In this map De L'Isle corrected longitude positions and was the first to revert to a peninsula form for California. He stops his western coast at Cape Mendocin. It is also the first printed map to show the Sargossa Sea. This example appears to be state 3 with the imprint of Renard erased.
