This large and detailed chart extends from Monterrey Bay north to Bodega Bay, including all of San Francisco and San Pablo bays, and north to Petaluma. It is filled with information including soundings, light houses, islands and remarkable coastline detail. Cities of Oakland, Vallejo, Benicia, Brooklyn, Union City, Redwood City and more are located. This map provides a terrific view of the development of the region around San Francisco little more than a decade after the start of the Gold Rush.
