A charming late eighteenth century twin hemisphere map of the world, by an unidentified publisher.  The map shows the route of Cook's voyages. Australia is represented as New Holland, with only Sharks Bay (named by William Dampier in 1699), South Cape, Nuyts Land and Capes Sandwich, Capricorn and Morton indentified across the entire continent.
