This example names each of the Hawaiian islands, as well as several towns, bays and mountains. This attractive map shows the topography with hachure, and includes an inset of Oahu at lower left. A note regarding the death of Capt. Cook appears in Kearakekua Bay, on the southwestern side of the island of Hawaii. The map is nearly identical to the map that appeared in William Ellis' 1826 "Narrative of a Tour through Hawaii," which was the first cartographic portrayal of volcanic activity in Hawaii.
