Atlas maritimus & commercialis; or, A general view of the world, so far as relates to trade and navigation: Describing all the coasts, ports, harbours, and noted rivers, according to the latest discoveries and most exact observations. Together with a large account of the commerce carried on by sea between the several countries of the world, as likewise of all inland trade by means of navigable rivers; the rise, progress, and decay thereof, in its various branches; with methods for farther improvements. To which are added sailing directions for all the known coasts and islands on the globe; with a sett of sea-charts, some laid down after Mercator, but the greater part according to a new globular projection, adapted for measuring distances (as near as possible) by scale and compass, and authorized by letters patent under the great seal of Great-Britain. The use of the projection justified by Dr. Halley. To which are subjoin'd two large hemispheres on the plane of the equinoctial; containing all the stars in the Britannic catalogue: of great use to sailors for finding the latitude in the night.
