      title = {Atlas maritimus & commercialis; or, A general view of  the world, so far as relates to trade and navigation  Describing all the coasts, ports, harbours, and noted  rivers, according to the latest discoveries and most exact  observations. Together with a large account of the commerce  carried on by sea between the several countries of the  world, as likewise of all inland trade by means of  navigable rivers; the rise, progress, and decay thereof, in  its various branches; with methods for farther  improvements. To which are added sailing directions for all  the known coasts and islands on the globe; with a sett of  sea-charts, some laid down after Mercator, but the greater  part according to a new globular projection, adapted for  measuring distances (as near as possible) by scale and  compass, and authorized by letters patent under the great  seal of Great-Britain. The use of the projection justified  by Dr. Halley. To which are subjoin'd two large hemispheres  on the plane of the equinoctial; containing all the stars  in the Britannic catalogue: of great use to sailors for  finding the latitude in the night.
