It shows excellent detail of the Bahamas, Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola, Puerto Rico, and the Windward Islands. Cape Canaveral, Havana, Santiago de Cuba (S. Iago), Santiago De Los Caballeros (also S. Iago), Santo Domingo, San Juan, Cartagena, and Coro are located along with many other towns and cities. The map is decorated with a delicately engraved, drape-style cartouche. Engraved by Jean Somer.
