An attractive and well detailed map of the West Indies with insets of the Virgin Islands, Martinique & Guadeloupe. A touch of outline color along the shore lines of the individual islands provides a delicate accent and is color coded to reflect colonial claims. Bold keyboard style border and very wide margins. Minor offsetting and chipping at paper edge.
