[Pacific Ocean]. APRES DE MANNEVILLETTE, Jean-Baptiste-Nicolas-Denis d' Map of the Isle of France, Port Louis on that island, based on the observations of Mr. d'Apres de Mannevillette in 1751... (Paris, 1751). A folio-sized map engraved on copper in black (small tear of approx. 2 cm with no loss along the central fold, very slight foxing, minor restorations). A fine copy of this large map of the Isle of France—now Mauritius—and its main anchorage, Port Louis, published to accompany the *Neptune Oriental*. D’Après de Mannevillette’s *Neptune Oriental* is one of the major French nautical atlases devoted to the eastern seas. First published in 1745, then completely revised and significantly expanded in 1775, it was intended to provide navigators with precise charts of the sea routes to the Red Sea, India, China, Indonesia, and Southeast Asia. The edition from around 1810 was expanded to include charts from the Dépôt général de la Marine, incorporating the most recent hydrographic surveys and discoveries.
