A remarkable French map of southern Africa from 1858. The map shows the gigantic Lake Uniamesi. This lake, as it turned out, was nonexistent and was believed to be the source of the Nile and the Congo Rivers. You can read more about it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Uniamesi
Dimensions: 28 x 36 cm
Condition: Good (some minor signs of age/use, but in good overall condition). The map has a center fold, as issued.
