This dense and informative sea chart centers on the Strait of Sunda in between Sumatra and Java. Several smaller islands are identified, and depth soundings, anchorages, routes, bays, shoals, navigational notes, and mountains with their elevations are shown. There are three insets with nice detail: Sketch of Nangga Harbour on the North Side of Pulo Lagoondy..., Plan of Merah Harbour on the North Side of Java..., and Plan of Batana Road and the Adjacent Channels. Originally published in 1818, the chart has been corrected to 1853. Backed on original linen with green cloth border and cloth ties.
