Nice set of maps that focus on the voyages and discoveries of Captain Cook. The world map shows both islands of New Zealand and the eastern coast of Australia, although Tasmania is still attached to the mainland. The American map includes an inset of Alaska and the northeast coast of Asia. It also names thirteen states within the United States. The map of Asia presents an fairly accurate picture of the many island groups in the Pacific and South China Sea. An inset shows the Chukotskiy Peninsula. The map of Africa is also quite up-to-date with a correct origin for the Nile. The map of Europe shows the political divisions, rivers and major cities. The world map measures 8.2 x 5" and the continent maps are 8.5 x 7".
