Map Preface Claims Early American Survey Accuracy
A prefatory note argues the Western division of the map was precise when published at the start of the American war and used by Crown officers. It details later pirated copies, the author’s access to Board of Trade surveys, and denounces Jefferys for distortions. It also cites Captain Holland denying publication from surveys and references Governor Pownall and the Earl of Dartmouth.
