A Map Of The Most Inhabited Part Of New England... 1774. Braddock Mead (aka John Green c.1688 - 1757)
2 parts, each approx. 21 1/2 x 40 1/2 inches sheet. The Finest original color possible. Braddock Mead’s map of New England is generally considered the single most important and influential map of New England published during the British Colonial period. First issued in 1755, the map provided the largest-scale and most detailed and accurate portrait of the region to date. Its importance was such that it was revised and reissued well into the 1790s, and over this period it served as a primary source for leading European and American mapmakers.
