  Manuscripts

  The atlas also known as "The Great South Sea of America," as well as the "South Sea waggoner" contains a description of the sea coasts in the South Sea of America from the port of Acapulco to the Le Maire Straits. The atlas depicts ports, harbors, anchoring islands, sands, rock and other navigational dangers. The 132 charts are of a pictorial nature; the coast-line is laid down as in a plane map, but back from the water's edge the country is rendered as seen from the sea. The mountains and hills are given in their natural colors; towns, churches, bridges, and even isolated houses, with all other landmarks of use to navigators, have been inserted by the mapmaker, and voluminous directions are given for the entering of harbors, the avoidances of shoals and rocks, distances, together with notices of where ships were wrecked, where Sawkins (one of Sharpe's colleagues) was killed, and other historical landmarks. Charts 52 and 53 are on the same sheet. The large chart of the west coasts of Central and South America which was originally bound at the beginning of the volume was removed in December 1948 and placed in a separate portfolio.
