This handsome map of Asia extends to include northeastern Africa and the northern tip of Australia. The map is based on Schenk's 1708 edition of Guillaume Delisle's map of Asia, with the exception of Japan, as it is not connected to Land of Iesso as in Delisle's map. A note next to Iesso states that "the land and seas between Japon, Corea and Iesso are hitherto undiscovered and it is not known whether Iesso be a part of the continent or not." A Sandy Desert is depicted in Mongolia, and the route of Isbrand Ides (Isbon Idres) expedition through Asia is marked. The northern coastline, which is noted as ye Supposed N. Coast, is shown in an inset at bottom.
