In stock
This black and white, antique coastal survey was made for the United States Coast Survey. The surveys provide depth readings and notes on important coastal characteristics of the area mapped. The names of harbors, rivers, islands, channels, shoals, capes, inlets, and coastal towns are identified on the map. These charts show areas that have likely undergone significant changes due to modifications and recessions of coastal lands, making them fascinating to anyone interested in local geography and history. This map details several of the Keys in Florida, including The Dry Tortugas, Key West, Bahia Honda, Coffins Patches and Key Biscayne. This is a triangulation map.
