Interesting map of Africa at the beginning of the eighteenth-century. John Cary was considered 'the most representative, able and prolific of English cartographers'. Tooley says, 'As an engraver he was elegant and exact with fine clear lettering and great delicacy of touch'.

Very good condition, some offsetting and stains to the margins.
