Revolutionary War map of Lake Champlain, New York in 1776, spanning from Fort Saint-Jean (Fort St. John’s) in Quebec, to Ticonderoga in New York. The plan depicts the Battle of Valcour Island on October 11, 1776, and a running fight at Button-Mold Bay (present day Button Bay), October 13, 1776. The original plan, showing positions of ships and troops, was a very detailed, large-scale 6-feet long manuscript, surveyed in 1778 and 1779. This is a scaled-down version, approximately half the size of the original.
