This map shows East Falkland fairly well delineated with a couple of bays and points noted. West Falkland is only partially drawn with conjectural lines extending west. The lettered key in the title cartouche identifies location "A" as a French establishment that was handed over to the Spanish, and "B" as the area where the English are suspected as having built an establishment.
