This small map served as the frontispiece to the fourth edition of William Ellis' Narrative of a Tour Through Hawaii. It names each of the Hawaiian islands, as well as several towns, bays and mountains. Topography is rendered with hachuring, and there is an inset of Oahu at lower left. A note regarding the death of Capt. Cook appears in Kearakekua Bay, on the southwestern side of the island of Hawaii. The maps in Ellis' work are notable as the first to portray volcanic activity in Hawaii.
