An early large-scale and influential English map of North America, featuring some of the-then most up-to-date cartographic information regarding the region. Senex drew heavily on French cartographer Guillaume de l'Isle (1675-1726), consolidating several of his influential maps to depict the region from the north in Canada from Baffin Bay and terra incognito above it, down south to Mexico and Central America, and out west to California.
