This listing is for the map only, which was originally in THE GENTLEMAN'S MAGAZINE, dated October, 1776
* Rare Revolutionary War era map
* Long Island, New York City
The map is a great fold-out headed: "Sketch of the Country Illustrating the late Engagement in Long Island". The map, which measures, 8 1/4 by 13 1/2 inches, shows the region from Amboy in New Jersey to "Hamsted Plains" and a bit beyond, and north to West Chester & New Rochelle. Points of interest on the map include New Utrecht, Brooklyn, Jamaica, "Flat Bush", New York, Harlem & Flushing. Also shown on the map are Bergen Point, Staten Island Oyster Bay, Governor's Island, King's Bridge & Long Island Sound. This map is in very nice condition but does have some typical ink off-setting (minimal) from the map folded against itself for over 230 years (see images).
