Lie group map whose differential is an isomorphism is a covering map
$begingroup$
While trying to read the proof in Fulton and Harris of their “Second Principle,” I ran across something that I do not understand. They seem to claim that if $f: Grightarrow H$ is a map of Lie groups whose differential $(df)_e: mathfrak{g}rightarrowmathfrak{h}$ is an isomorphism, then f is a covering map. Can anyone provide a proof or a reference?

Can you please make "They seem to claim that" more clearer.. I do not have the book so can not check.. can you mention clearly where it is being said? What have you tried? How do you prove some map is a covering map?
