Cartes Particulieres Des Isles De France, De Bourbon Et Rodrigue

Cartes Particulieres Des Isles De France, De Bourbon Et Rodrigue

click to enlarge

An attractive map of the Indian Ocean islands of Bourbon, Mauritius (Isle de France) and Rodriguez. The three maps are each delineated separately in considerable detail across the top of the page, while below a more general map shows the islands' situations relevant to each other. Bourbon is shown with its volcano erupting. The map was engraved by Andre and his name appears in the lower right corner. Maps of these now-popular travel destinations are difficult to find and this is a detailed and attractive option.
