A good example of the mouth of Cook's River and Prince William Sound surveyed during Capt James Cook's third and final voyage into the Pacific. Elegantly and precisely engraved with lettering by W. Harrison, this is from the first edition of the official account. Minor centrefold paper thinning but protectively backed.
