Bookplate pasted down with Coat of Arms of Verney.<br/><br/> This commercial sea atlas was published in 1728 as a guide to British global commerce. Today it is a historically significant English overview of world trade during a rapid period of development of the British Empire's trading power. The atlas consists of two parts. The first is the "Atlas Maritimus & Commercialis" proper which provides a geographical overview of the world as it relates to trade and navigation. It also gives an account of contemporary commerce including the traded commodities of each country. The second part is "A General Coasting Pilot" by Nathaniel Cutler which provides sailing directions. The volume was published anonymously though the maps are often attributed to Sir Edmond Halley the Astronomer Royal of Britain who also wrote the prefatory note discussing the charts' use. The atlas's emphasis on commerce in addition to geography distinguishes it from "The English Pilot" the period's standard in maritime charts. It was also notable for covering the entire globe including the south and west coasts of America in one volume. This is an early issue of the Atlas with A Chart of the Coast of Scotland on a globular projection.
