Shows the tract of Forrest’s ship, the Tartar Galley, on its voyage in 1774-76 and the harbors visited” A large dedication block fills the top corner of the map, "In Testimony of Esteem and Regard for his great Maritime Abilities to Sir William James, Bart. Deputy Chairman of the Honorable E. India Company, This Map is Inscribed by his most humble Servant, Thomas Forrest."
