This is a fine map of Louisiana by John Harrison taking in the southern portions of present day Alabama and Mississippi. It is derived from that of d’Anville, 1732, entitled ‘Carte de la Louisiane’ and is drawn by John Haywood and engraved by Thomas Bowen. The map focuses on the Mississippi and Alabama River deltas and shows the Red River as far as Adayes, a ‘Spanish garrison of the Province of Tecas’, an early reference to Texas. The coastal area extends from ‘Cabo del Norte’ in the west to Cape San Blas and Apalachicola Bay (‘C. Escondido’). An inset to the right portrays the northern portion of Louisiana Territory up to and including the Missouri River. The map bears numerous notations of towns destroyed by battles, both Indian and French. The map can be found in a rare untitled atlas by Harrison an example of which resides in the British Library. Most of the maps are based on those of d’Anville who receives acknowledgement. Harrison was an engraver, printer and publisher who flourished from the mid-1780s to about 1815. cf Lemmon, Magill & Wiese (2003) no. 24; Sellers & Van Ee (1981) 1616; Shirley (2004) T.Har 1a no. 25; Worms & Baynton-Williams (2011).
