ABSTRACT

I may say that M. Chapelain is the real author of this map, because he gave it as his opinion that it was absolutely necessary for the illustration of my narrative, and I could not do wrong in following the advice of a person who has attained such high and universal approbation. I have drawn this map on four elevations which were well-known to me, viz., Cape Farewell, Iceland, Spitzbergen, and that part of the Christian Sea where the ice arrested the progress of Captain Munck, which is here laid down and called Port of Munck's Winter.
