"Carte de l'Isle de la Martinique Colonie Francoise de l'une des Isles Antilles de l'Amerique Dressee sur des Plans Manuscrits...", Delisle/Dezauche

A large chart of the island engraved to show mountains, rivers, settlements, churches, roads, and forts. The three divisions of the island are delineated, designating areas for the Jesuits, Cappuchins, and the Dominicans. The chart includes a key, three distance scales, rhumb lines and three compass roses. Engraved by Delahaye. This is a later edition of the map, published after Dezauche acquired Delisle's plates following Buache's death in 1773.
