Mexico, A New General Atlas Antique Map by Finley

A very rare and interesting map of Mexico circa 1824 showing the extents from New Albion, New California, east to include what would become Texas, and South to the Yucatan (Intendency of Merida). The map shows some interesting features, namely The Buenaventura River, what was considered the "River of the West" when there was still hope for an alternate to the northwest passage. The "Salt Lake" is modern-day Sevier Lake, and Lake Timpanogos is modern-day Utah Lake at Provo, Utah.
