Historical notes:
Dudley's sea atlas was the first to cover the entire world, to be based on Mercator's projection, and to be made by an Englishman, albeit one working in Italy. His charts of the New England coast are the earliest to show soundings.The engraver wrote in the introduction to this work that the engraving of the volumes took twelve years and used five thousand pounds of copper.
