Note:
Shows North and South America, with two inset maps of Isola Di St. Domingo and Isola Della Martinica. A pretty map, and very out of date - the western U.S. portions look like they were copied from an 1815 map. Tooley lists several members of the Stucchi family as engravers in Milan, but not Achille. This map was probably issued in the 1820's or 30's, and them reissued with minimal updating in 1856. Printed with outline color. Relief shown by hachures.
