Description
This is an outstanding map of Africa south of the Equator including all of Madagascar. The map shows the various native kingdoms of the interior and what was known then of the coastline, much of which is fictitious. There are two interesting insets of the Cape of Good Hope. At left is a plan of Table Bay with an elevation of Table Mountain, and at right is a large plan of the Cape Colony with extensive detail and fairly accurate topographical information including the names of early landowners. From Elwe's monumental 'Atlas'.
