Title translation: Plan of Casco Bay and Harbour and adjacent islands, by Cyprian Southack. Written, according to an English map, general deposit maps, plans and navy newspapers. By order of Sartine, state councilor, Minister and Secretary of State at the Department of the Navy. Nautical chart of Casco Bay and surrounding settlements including Casco Fort. Depths shown by soundings. Captain Cyprian Southack (1662-1745) explored Portland harbor in 1698 and published his chart in London in 1720. It appeared, with minor modifications, in many editions of The English Pilot between 1721 and the 1790s. Here it has been appropriated by the French, where it appeared in Neptune Americo-Septentrionale at the time of the American Revolution. By the time this French version appeared, the British had vastly superior charts of Casco Bay that were included in The Atlantic Neptune.

Map of the British Colonies, which identifies each of the 13 Colonies by name in the title and in the map, at the outbreak of the American Revolution. Maryland is an odd shape for the time period. Includes detail in the Great Lakes region and a few places named in the Ohio Valley. Ft. Necessite is also shown. The map is very Franco-centric, limiting British claims to the regions east of the Appalachian Mountains.
