A highly corrected version of this oversized Admiralty chart 3811 originally published 26th February 1925 under the Superintendence of Captain P.H. Douglas. Edition Date 2000 with further correction up to 2005.

Detailed chart of Tagolo Point to Cuyo Islands including Cebu, Negros and parts of Panay and Palawany.

The charts published by the Hydrographic Office of the Admiralty in London represent well both cartographic history and also the history of European naval technology and surveying techniques. The concise coastal surveys were compiled to meet the naval demand for the most contemporary description, water depth, land elevation and directional readings.
The engraving is very clean and crisp fashion which is indicative of the English style of mapmaking. For those interested in the mapping of the Philippines as well as naval history, this chart serve as wonderful examples of both areas of study.
