notes:
The Queen Charlotte islands are an archipelago off present-day British Columbia, Canada. They were named by Dixon for the wife of King George III. It is the homeland of the Haida people who were probably the creators of these artifacts. Port Mulgrave is now on Yakutat Bay [formerly Admiralty Bay] at the extreme southeast of present-day Alaska.Beresford was supercargo on the Queen Charlotte, the ship of which Dixon was captain. Dixon edited Beresford's letters and added the maps and the navigational and natural history information. The goal of the voyage was to establish a fur trade along the northwest coast for King George's Sound Company in which Dixon was a partner.Engraver may be Inigo Barlow, active 1790.Image placed horizontally on page.
