These two c. 1927 manuscript maps, drawn on a single sheet, detail anchorages along the coast of Peru: one of the Island of Santa and the approaches to Pacasmayo. They were taken from the 1824-27 voyage of HMS Mersey during the ship's tenure in South America and were likely the work of either her Captain or her Master. (more details)
