This pair of maps focuses on the island of St. Vincent, the largest island in the country of St. Vincent and the Grenadines. The first map features the entire island in exquisite topographical detail with place names along the coasts and roads inland. The second is an attractive bird's-eye plan showing the town of Calliaqua (Cariacoua) at the southern end of St. Vincent. Two "proposed forts" are depicted, as well as soundings, shoals, and a location suitable for anchoring both small and large vessels. The tiny island just south of Young Island, here called Le Grand Islet, later became the location for Fort Duvernette.
