Description: Striking large format map of the Western Hemisphere, including routes of 18th Century Explorers (Cook, La Perouse, Vancouver, Pickersgill and Gore). NW Coast of America is well charted, but still with large unknown areas. The Sandwich Islands have been visited by a number of explorers. New Zealand is prominently shown as two islands. The Western Pacific is dotted with recently explored islands tracks of exploration. A bit of offsetting, else a nice example.
