Antique uncolored map of the Northeast published by Pease. This is an 1849 reprint of a map originally published in 1779 . The original was done by French-born surveyor Claude Joseph Sauthier, who produced many manuscript maps of New York and Staten Island during the early years of the Revolution. He compiled this map between 1771 and 1774 under the direction of the Governor of New York. This includes natural features and topography, boundaries, roads and establishments such as houses, taverns and forts. It shows the area from Long Island to Canada and from the Connecticut River to Lake Ontario.  With the Hudson River, St Lawrence River, Lake Champlain, the Green Mountains, the Oblong, early patents, and some notes on the locations of Native American Indians. A mountain west of Lake George, likely Gore Mountain, is labeled “Very Remarkable Mt.” Very good restored condition. Has been cleaned, deacidified, and backed. Some minor signs of age may be visible. Approx. 37 x 27.5 inches to the decorative border.
