Summary edit

Title
English: A passage by land to California discovered by the Rev. Father Eusebius Francis Kino Jesuite between ye years 1698 and 1701
Description
English: This early English copy of Father Eusebio Kino's 1701 map clearly shows the land connecting the Baja California peninsula at upper left. It also conveys the place names and locations of many of the Jesuit missionary's travels. In the upper right are the ruins of Casa Grande, Apaches, Moqui (Hopi villages), and the hills of "A large mountain reaching to the River Hila [Gila], which flows westward into the "Rio Colorado o' del Norte." Mission towns established and named by Kino, either in Christian or native names, include "St. Ignace" (San Ignacio), "S. Magdalena" (Magdalena), "San François Xavier du Bac" (San Xavier del Bac), "Cocospara" (Cocóspora), "Conception del Cabetca" (Caborca), "St. Gaetan" (Tumacácori, i.e., San Cayetano del Tumacacori), and "S. Cosme" (Tucsón, i.e., San Cosmé del Tucsón). In the lower part of the map is the portion of the Baja peninsula that Kino covered with Isidro Atondo's second expedition. From San Bruno on the coast of the Sea of California, Kino had traveled west across the mountains to reach the Pacific in 1685 (here labeled "The South Sea discoverd [sic.] 1685"). Kino's map appeared in print – apparently not by Spanish intent - but from the fact that a manuscript copy of his map sent from Mexico City made it into the hands of a French Jesuit, who had first published it in 1705 as an engraving by Charles Inselin in the popular mission magazine Lettres Edifiantes and the Jesuit scientific journal Mémoires de Trévoux. From there it was widely copied in contemporary engravings. This English copy still preserves some of the French from the original French printed copy such as "San François Xavier du Bac."
