I'm publishing a book on a wave of UFO sightings across North America in 1896 and 7 and I want to include a map of all the locations that reported sightings. There were a total of 1113 sightings, but several locations had 2 - 3 sightings each, so there will probably be something like 8 or 900 pins on the map. I'm just looking for a simple map that shows all of North America (excluding Mexico), all state and provincial borders, and a simple dot for every location where there was a sighting. I don't need the pins to be labelled, although I would like each state and province to be labelled with its two-letter code (AZ for Arizona, MB for Manitoba, etc.). The map should be in greyscale and should be configured so as to be legible when printed on the page of a small paperback book. I will send you an excel spreadsheet with a list of all 1113 sightings, with a column displaying the town or city, and a column displaying the state or province.
