About This Item

London: J. D. Potter, Agent for Admiralty Charts.., 1860. The actual chart measure 30 x 24 inches, folding into the 8.5 x 13 inch oblong cloth boards (gilt stamped title: Chart of Naval History 1860) . The boards are a bit scuffed, with the sticker of the "Statistical Society, Founded 1834" on the front cover, and a few discrete stamps on linen verso (minimal dampstain verso, not affecting image). This is a highly detailed historical chart, with details of wars, dates, rulers, etc. through 1856 (Queen Victoria) and the wars with Russia. Tabular data (this is not a map), with number of ships, guns, tonnage, etc. This is labeled as the 2d Edition, 7th June, 1860.. Very Good.
