This map does not show much change from previous cartography. The western portion of the Gila River is named the "Rio Azul". The village that is now Tucson is still shown by its earlier name San Augustin. A tribute to Fr. Kino covers the area of the West for which there is still a lack of knowledge. Emanuel Bowen (ca.1720-1767) was an engraver, printseller and publisher in London. He was appointed Engraver of Maps to George II of England and Louis XV of France, but died poor and nearly blind.
