Second edition of Thomas Yeates important chart of the World showing magnetic variations, which extended the work of Edmund Halley to the Pacific Ocean and other previously uncharted regions. An important improvement on Edmond Halley's chart of 1701. Halley's charts became obsolete and were updated by William Mountaine and James Dodson in 1744 and 1756, relying upon Halley's model, with modified Isogonal lines. As noted by Yeates in his historical text, the chart was again updated in 1794. In 1817, with financial assistance from Trinity House, Yeates created the first significant modification to Halley's basic model, extending the Isogonal lines to include the Pacific Ocean and covering the world from 60 Degrees North to 60 Degrees South Latitude. Marginal historical and explanatory notes are listed in the left panel where Yeates provides a short synopsis of the history of magnetism from its discovery by the Chinese. In the right text panel, Yeates gives a lengthy explanation of the "Deductions and Experiments Made by Capt. M. Flinders Relating to the Variation of the magnetic Needle". Prime meridian is Greenwich. Map includes explanatory notes and compass roses.

Color relief map by S.J. Turner representing a bird's eye view from space encompassing a wide swath of the globe from Italian Somaliland at the lower edge of the map to Morocco and Italy at the upper edge of the map, just below a distant horizon of the earth's curvature. The style brings to mind the work of Richard Edes Harrison who used this "aviation age" cartography to great effect during World War II. As with the maps of Harrison, the perspective emphasises the proximity of areas than might appear further removed on a "conventional" map - an important realisation when times of crisis. On the map it is noted that "This map is divided into 200-MILE SQUARES shown in perspective." Shows international boundaries, railways. major cities, and rivers. Includes European possession in Africa. Relief shown by shadings.
