This boldly engraved double-page chart centers on the English Channel and details southern Britain and northern France. From the north, the map extends from Bedford south to Brittany, and inland to Paris on the Seine and London on the Thames. Just the southern tip of Ireland is included. It includes a compass rose, rhumb lines and other features more typical of a sea chart. A rarely seen map.
