Description
Description from Mapping Maryland: "Serving as the geographer to King George III, Jefferys' work generally concentrated on British North America. Though being the king's geographer brought an elevated social status, no salary went with this honorific title, and Jefferys went bankrupt in 1768. This small scale copy of the Fry-Jefferson copy features an elaborate title cartouche."
