Bibliographic information
| Note | A companion volume to "L'Hydrographie Francoise", Pub List No. 12059.000. See the note and pub note fields of 12059.000 for explanation of the provenance of this volume. It is inscribed similarly to the L'Hydrographie Francoise volumes by William Peere Williams who captured this volume along with the other two when he defeated the French ship Nymphe in battle on August 10, 1780 off the coast of Brittany in France. |

| Note | A feather pen was found in this atlas at this page where we presume it has sat undisturbed for over 200 years. We have not tested the ink, but given that the atlas and its two companion volumes the Neptune Hydrographie both have several annotations and notes on paper, it is likely that the pen belonged to the French captain Du Romaine. |
