In den WarenkorbMap. Zustand: Very good overall. First Irish Edition. The general chart for a Dublin edition of Cook's Voyages, re-engraved & printed by the Byrne family with a number of variations including on the East Coast of Australia printing Trinity B. not Bay and leaving off Pt. Danger. Other variations include the spelling of Hawaii in…this Irish edition OWTRYHEE while the English edition is printed OWHYHEE . Caracacooa is corectly spelt and placed on both versions. This is a very impressive and unusual map, as the Irish editions are very often found without maps. The very bright impression, on two high quality laid sheets that have been joined together. This persuades us that this is an early pull from this plate, most likely the 1784 Dublin edition, Beddie 1546. All three of Cook's voyages' tracks are marked with dates. Neatly flattened, backed on acid-free tissue, some old folds strengthened. 35 x 22.8 inches, with full margins.
