"A New Map of the English Empire in the Ocean of America or West Indies", Senex, John

An uncommon large map with eight maps on a single sheet. The major map is of Jamaica with its parishes and very fine detail and notations throughout and an inset map of Port Royal harbor. Arrayed at top are maps of Barbados (with an inset of Bridgetown), the entire West Indies, Antigua, St. Kitts, Tobago and Bermuda. This is a revised version of Christopher Browne's map of 1690 with Senex's imprint in title. Engraved by J. Harris.
