This detailed engraved chart features multiple smaller inset maps or charts, providing hydrographic views of various bays and harbors. The prominent charts include "FROM YORK BAY TO THREE ISLAND BAY AND HARBOUR" and "ST. DAVIDS BAY". This work originates from the atlas accompanying Captain James Cook's third voyage, published in 1784. The maps meticulously illustrate coastlines, navigational features, and depth soundings, reflecting the precision and scientific ambition of 18th-century British hydrographic surveys and global exploration, particularly in regions like Alaska or the Pacific Northwest.

Captain James Cook (1728–1779) was a distinguished British naval officer, navigator, and explorer. He led three celebrated voyages of discovery to the Pacific Ocean, significantly contributing to cartography and geographical knowledge. His expeditions accurately charted vast areas, including numerous bays and coastlines previously unknown to Europeans, greatly advancing global understanding of geography.
