America first appeared on world maps in the early sixteenth century, but it was not until the explorations of Marquette and Joliet, Lewis and Clark, and Zebulon Pike that accurate maps could be drawn. This exhibition is from a private collection of maps and atlases, some so early that continental boundaries could only be imagined.
