This 1752 map shows North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia as separate provinces, a useful reminder that the three colonies were still being sorted into their final boundaries. The title's promise of a "new & accurate" survey was a common sales claim, since mapmakers of the period often relied on earlier surveys and on reports from traders and explorers. The southern Appalachians, which later became the Great Smoky Mountains, lay far inland and were known to colonial mapmakers only in rough outline. The mountains came under national park protection nearly two centuries after this map was drawn.
