Description: Fine example of Goos's rare early map of the Northern part of America, including Hudson Bay, Davis Straits, Button Bay and the west coast of Greenland.
The map covers the region bounded by Hudson Bay, Baffin Bay, Greenland and the Northern part of Newfoundland. Includes several tentative coastlines and several hopeful passages to the Pacific Ocean. The map is one of the earliest sea charts to cover this region in meaningful detail.
