Topographical features are shown with numerous mountains, cities, towns, and waterways identified. Indian Tribes are located throughout the map.
The insets depict the ''ENVIRONS OF RIO JANEIRO'' and ''PARAGUAY''. A very attractive view of northeastern South America as it was known in the mid-19th century.
