Omnia figuris in aes incisis expressa à Theodoro de Bry.
The first delineation of the New world and the first use of the name America on a printed map: an analytical comparison of three maps for each of which priority of representation has been claimed (two with name America and one without) with an argument tending to demonstrate that the earliest in each case is the one discovered in 1893 and now preserved in the John Carter Brown library at Providence, R.I.
by Henry N. Stevens.
