Entrance to the Chesapeake Bay. Silk-Flyers "Escape" Map though not shown on thisEntrance to the Chesapeake Bay., Reduced from the Surveys made by D. P. Adams and other by order of the Navy Commissioners of the U. S. Blunt is a noted figure in 19th century chart making, and this smaller map is from a practical reference that Blunt made looking at the specific parts of America's eastern shore.
