click to enlarge

A large and important map printed on two sheets joined of the Canadian North West Territories from Great Bear Lake to the Arctic shores and the mouth of the Mackenzie River. Captain John Franklin's discoveries are clearly reported with annotations about the map which appeared with his "Narrative of the Arctic Land Expedition ... in the years 1825, 1826 and 1827" published by John Murray. The map was finely engraved by the brothers, John and Charles Walker, and, on thin paper, has been lightly backed for preservation purposes.
