Notes

Finely engraved map of Japan by Aaron Arrowsmith, the leading British cartographer of his day.

The map shows rivers, mountains, gold mines, towns, and cities. Fatsitio (Hachijō-jima) is marked ‘Fatsisio, or Unhappy I. The Place of Exile for the Japanese Grandees.’ The interior of Korea has been left blank, except for a scale in British and Japanese miles.
