Daniel Crouch Rare Books is proud to offer a fascinating group of late nineteenth century, and early twentieth century nautical charts. The majority of which were used aboard the Norwegian barque ‘Fortuna’.
The group provides a valuable insight into the chart trade at the turn of the twentieth century. Although, the trove is dominated by British Admiralty charts, and those produced by the British firms of Frederick Imray, Norie & Wilson, and R.H. Laurie, it also includes charts by the nascent United States Navy Hydrographic Office, and The Royal Danish Chart Archive.
