Maps shows the Pacific and all its islands from lower California in the upper right to Tasmania and Australia in the lower left. The islands are color coded to determine which country they belong to and the names of uninhabited islands are in italic. Submarine telegraph cables are also shown. A legend in the lower right gives the abbreviations used and the color codes. A very detailed and interesting chart.
