Notes
From 1773, Rigobert Bonne was appointed to the position of Royal Cartographer to France in the office of Hydrographer at the Depot de la Marine. Also note that Raynal collaborated with Bonne on this edition of Atlas des Toutes les Parties Connues du Globe Terrestre, though it is unknown if Raynal contributed to this exact map. Atlas map likely removed from source: Bonne, Rigobert. Atlas des Toutes les Parties Connues du Globe Terrestre, dresse pour l'histoire philosophique & politique des etablissemens & du commerce des europeens dans les deux Indes...Geneva: J.L Pellet, 1780.
