Bag om Directions for Sailing to and from the East Indies, China, New Holland, Cape of Good Hope, and the Interjacent Ports

After poor navigation led to his ship being wrecked in the Indian Ocean in 1786, James Horsburgh (1762-1836) devoted himself to the production of accurate charts of the eastern seas. This two-volume work, first published in 1809-11, became the standard reference for navigators for half a century.
