SARTINE, ANTOINE DE Plan de l'île d'Amelia à la côte de la Floride orientale, tiré de la carte de la Georgie et de la Caroline méridionale de De Brahm, et assujeti pour le port d'Ameilia...
[Paris: Depôt des Cartes et Plans de la Marine], 1779. First state, with the fleur-de-lis in the Depot de la Marine Stamp. Engraved map, hand colored, framed; sheet measures 24 3/4 x 18 1/4 (63 x 46.5 cm). Lightly toned, pale spotting, dampstaining.

A highly detailed Revolutionary War era navigational chart of Amelia Island and the entrance to the St. Mary's River in Northeastern Florida, showing different navigable channels to approach the island, as well as the locations of the various habitations and plantations that were located there. The map is derived from Captain William Fuller's 1770 chart, Jacob Blamey's 1775 chart, and a larger map of Georgia and the Carolinas by William De Brahm. It first appeared in Sartain's Neptune Americo-Septentrional, published between 1778 and 1780, but would have also been available separately for sale to the public.
