The Cartographical History of the North-Eastern Boundary Controversy Between the United States and Great Britain (Classic Reprint)

Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Cartographical History of the North-Eastern Boundary Controversy Between the United States and Great Britain Mr. Winsor drew attention to a manuscript statement (belonging to the Society) of the reasons which induced the Commissioners under Jay´s Treaty to decide that the Schoodiac River was the St. Croix of the Treaty of 1783. The award or M declaration "of the Commissioners had been several times printed; but Mr. Winsor could not find that this exposition as drawn up by Egbert Benson, the American Commissioner, had ever been given to the public. The manuscript has four well-executed copies of maps attached: (1) Champlain´s map of St. Croix Island; (2) a modern survey of Bone or Douchet Island, identified as Champlain´s St. Croix Island; (3) a section of Mitchell´s map of 1755 used by the Commissioners in 1783; (4) a modern survey of Passama-quoddy Bay. Champlain´s map is well known, though Mr. Benson says that the Commissioners were obliged to send to Europe for a copy of the "Voyages" of 1613, which contains it.
