Les Isles Antilles Et Le Golfe Du Mexique

A fine example of Rigobert Bonne and G. Raynal’s 1780 highly desirable map of the West Indies, Gulf of Mexico, Antilles, and Caribbean. Covers from Florida to the Spanish Main and from Mexico to Barbados. Bonne incorporates considerable detail throughout noting some undersea dangers, winds and ocean currents, cities, rivers, mountains, and lakes. An inset map in the upper right details Bermuda. Drawn by R. Bonne for G. Raynal’s Atlas de Toutes les Parties Connues du Globe Terrestre, Dressé pour l'Histoire Philosophique et Politique des Établissemens et du Commerce des Européens dans les Deux Indes.
