This map delineates cotidal lines, the tracks of vessels, and the Gulf Stream along the Eastern Seaboard. It spans from Florida as far north as Halifax, and it extends into the Atlantic to Bermuda. Inland detail is sparse aside from the names of states and a scattering of major cities. Taken from A.D. Bache's U.S. Coast Survey chart for the 18th edition of Blunt's American Coast Pilot.
