笔记

The tracks of the major explorations of the late eighteenth century are shown, and those of the early decades of the nineteenth, including that of Lieutenant W. E. Parry on the first voyage of the 'Hecla' in search of the Northwest Passage, in 1819.

Published in 'An atlas adapted to the Abbe Gaultier's geographical games consisting of a set of maps coloured, and also another set containing merely the outlines of kingdoms and provinces, with the course of rivers, and the situation of the principal towns, islands, mountains, &c. &c' (1832-1838).
