Entrance to the Chesapeake Bay. Silk-Flyers "Escape" Map Considerably more rare than Arbuckle'sEntrance to the Chesapeake Bay., Reduced from the Surveys made by D. P. Adams and other by order of the Navy Commissioners of the U. S. Blunt is a noted figure in 19th century chart making, and this smaller map is from a practical reference that Blunt made looking at the specific parts of America's eastern shore. A fine engraving that shows the coastal outline as well as the depth of the nearby waters in fathoms. A great reference from the time. .
