‎Des Barres JFW. publisher: Holland Samuel and George Callendar surveyors J. F.‎

‎A CHART OF THE HARBOUR OF BOSTON COMPOSED FROM DIFFERENT SURVEYS; BUT PRINCIPALLY FROM THAT TAKEN IN 1769 BY MR. GEORGE CALLENDAR LATE MASTER OF HIS MAJESTY'S SHIP THE ROMNEY‎

‎London: Published by J.F.W. Des Barres in THE ATLANTIC NEPTUNE 1775. Copper-engraved and etched map with aquatint on two joined sheets. Printed on laid paper with "J Bates" watermark and "JB" countermark. Sheet size: 30 1/4 x 42 5/8 inches. In excellent condition. Accompanied by the folio explanatory text leaf titled as above. 1p. The finest and most celebrated sea chart of Boston Harbor ever produced and a highly important Revolutionary War map depicting details relating to the Siege of Boston: with the very rare explanatory text leaf. This is one the most important maps contained in Des Barres' THE ATLANTIC NEPTUNE and one of the most significant large-scale maps of the Revolutionary War. It provides an invaluable record of Boston at the beginning of the war covering the area from the environs of the city out into the open waters of Massachusetts Bay. A particularly striking feature is the use of boldly etched and subtly aquatinted details to capture the diverse topography of the region including the numerous hills islands and river estuaries. It is important to remember that this was issued as a working sea chart and as such the cartographer has naturally concentrated on features such as depth soundings indicated by detailed lines and based on surveys by Samuel Holland and George Callendar and the navigable channels between the harbor's numerous shoals which are delicately outlined in stipple-engraving. Holland's original manuscript map is today preserved in the British Hydrographic Library at Taunton Somerset. The present map shows the city of Boston with its streets carefully outlined occupying a pear-shaped peninsula a position that would soon prove precarious to its British defenders in the escalating conflict. This is the second state of five of Des Barres' chart and is identical to the HENRY STEVENS COLLECTION variant 96D in the National Maritime Museum Greenwich. This state shows a number of notable changes when compared with the original and was evidently altered to take particular account of the Siege of Boston April 19 1775 to March 17 1776. Henry Stevens noted that this state depicted the addition of "Numerous Forts Batteries Redoubts &c. which have been inserted in many places notably on the Charles Town peninsula and on the mainland between 'Willis Creek' and 'Mystic River' also on the east and north side of 'Charles River' below 'Cambridge'.also to the south of 'Boston Neck' and 'Dorchester Neck'.This state is almost as rare as the first state. It is found in some copies of the earliest edition of the Neptune." The accuracy scope and artistic virtue of Des Barres's CHART OF THE HARBOUR OF BOSTON was apparent to his contemporaries and it became the main source map of the area for decades to come. Joseph Frederick Wallet Des Barres was born in Switzerland where his Huguenot ancestors had fled following the repeal of the Edict of Nantes. He studied under the great mathematician Daniel Bernoulli at the University of Basel before immigrating to Britain where he trained at the Royal Military College Woolwich. Upon the outbreak of hostilities with France in 1756 he joined the British Royal American Regiment as a military engineer. He came to the attention of Gen. James Wolfe who appointed him to join his personal detail. During this period he also worked with the legendary future explorer James Cook on a monumental chart of the St. Lawrence River. Upon the conclusion of the Seven Years' War Britain's empire in North America was greatly expanded and this required the creation of a master atlas featuring new and accurate sea charts for use by the Royal Navy. Des Barres was enlisted to survey the coastlines of Nova Scotia Newfoundland and the Gulf of St. Lawrence. With these extremely accurate surveys in hand Des Barres returned to London in 1774 where the Royal Navy charged him with the Herculean task of producing the atlas. He was gradually forwarded the manuscripts of numerous advanced surveys conducted by British cartographers in the American Colonies Jamaica and Cuba of which the present map is based on the work of Samuel Holland conducted in the 1760s. The result was THE ATLANTIC NEPTUNE which became the most celebrated sea atlas of its era containing the first systematic survey of the east coast of North America. Des Barres' synergy of great empirical accuracy with the peerless artistic virtue of his aquatint views created a work that "has been described as the most splendid collection of charts plates and views ever published" NMM. THE ATLANTIC NEPTUNE eventually consisted of four volumes and Des Barres' dedication to the project was so strong that often at his own expense he continually updated and added new charts and views to various editions up until 1784 producing over 250 charts and views many appearing in several variations. All of these charts were immensely detailed featuring both hydrographical and topographical information such that in many cases they remained the most authoritative maps of the regions covered for several decades. Following the completion of THE ATLANTIC NEPTUNE Des Barres returned to Canada where he remained for a further forty years becoming a senior political figure and a wealthy land owner living to the advanced age of 103.

‎A plan of Fort Montgomery and Fort Clinton taken by His Majesty's forces under the command of Maj. Gen.l Sir Henry Clinton K.B: Survey'd by Major Holland Surv.r Gen.l &c. . With large inset titled: Part of Hudsons River shewing the position of Fort Montgomery and Fort Clinton with the Chevaux de Frieze cables chains &c to obstruct the passage of his Majesty's forces up the river. By Lieut. John Knight of the Royal Navy in 1777‎

‎London 1779. Engraved and aquatint map period hand colouring. 14 lettered references large inset with title as above. Rare revolutionary chart of the Hudson River showing the American defenses on the eve of the Battle of Fort Montgomery. On October 6 1777 a British force led by Lieutenant General Sir Henry Clinton attacked Forts Montgomery and Clinton from the landward side where the American defenses were only partially completed. Support from cannon fire from British ships on the Hudson River that had passed through the chevaux de frise on the lower river. By the end of the day both forts had fallen to the British who burned the forts and tore down the stonework buildings. However the battle was a pyrrhic victory for the British. The campaign against the forts caused delays in reinforcing General John Burgoyne at Saratoga where Americans forced the British surrender ten days later at the Battle of Saratoga before Clinton's forces could arrive. The present map which depicts the Forts and the River defenses prior to the battle is from The Atlantic Neptune the finest large scale sea atlas of the United States and Canadian Atlantic coastline ever produced. The maps in the atlas were produced over a seven-year period 1775-82 and are well known for their accurate portrayal of various sounds bays bars harbors as well as navigational hazards. This atlas was used extensively by the Royal Navy during the American Revolution. Des Barres studied under the great mathematician Daniel Bernoulli at the University of Basel before continuing on to the Royal Military College at Woolwich. On the outbreak of the Seven Years war in 1756 he joined the British Royal American Regiment as a military engineer. He came to the attention of General James Wolfe who appointed him to be his aide-de-camp. From 1762 Des Barres was enlisted to survey the coastlines of Nova Scotia Newfoundland and the Gulf of St.Lawrence while his colleague Samuel Holland charted the New England coast and further south. In 1774 Des Barres returned to England where he began work on the Neptune. His dedication to the project was so strong that often at his own expense he continually updated and added new charts and views up until 1784. That year he returned to Canada where he remained for a further forty years becoming a senior political figure and a wealthy land owner and living to the advanced age of 103. The Atlantic Neptune was the first British sea atlas of her North American colonies and one of the most important achievements of eighteenth century cartography. With an official commission from the Royal Navy Des Barres published the first volume in London in 1775 which was soon followed by further volumes. Des Barres' monumental endeavor eventually featured over two-hundred charts and aquatint views many being found in several states. All of the charts were immensely detailed featuring both hydrographical and topographical information. The Neptune met with the highest acclaim from the beginning and is today widely regarded as superior to all other atlases produced during its time. Henry Stevens identified only a single state of this chart issued coloured or uncoloured which appeared in some examples volume four part two of the Atlantic Nepture; the map however is not listed in the engraved list of maps for that section and given the rarity was likely not issued in all copies.

Joseph Des Barres was born in Switzerland in 1721 and educated in Basel before emigrating to England and entering the Royal Military College where he learned engineering and the art of surveying. In 1756 Des Barres was commissioned a Lieutenant in the Royal American Regiment and dispatched to North America. He served in America during the Seven Years War under Colonel Bouquet Lord Howe and General Amherst and participated in the Quebec campaign as General Wolfe's engineer. Though Des Barres was responsible for the surveys done of Nova Scotia and the Isle of Sable the surveying of the coastline of what became the United States was undertaken by Major Samuel Holland a Dutchman who joined the British army during the French and Indian War as an engineer and became ultimately Surveyor General for North America. Holland was in charge of a rather large staff that included Charles Blaskowitz and George Gauld. They ultimately provided greatly improved charts for the entire coastline and the Gulf of Mexico. All this work was done prior to the Revolution which necessarily brought the surveys to an end. The publishing supervised by Des Barres continued throughout the war years. Des Barres compiled and edited the atlas maintaining a high standard throughout. His primary motive seems to have been the navigational usefulness of the charts. He clearly envisioned a navigator's needs in approaching a shoreline. The Atlantic Neptune was the first new survey of American coastlines in a century and the need was very great. The charts were plagiarized for the next thirty or forty years. Des Barres also had a flare for making charts aesthetically appealing so that they are invariably handsome as well as unfailingly interesting.

‎BUZZARDS BAY AND VINEYARD SOUND‎

‎London: J.F.W. Des Barres for THE ATLANTIC NEPTUNE 1776. Large engraved chart from Des Barres' ATLANTIC NEPTUNE on two sheets of laid paper joined each bearing "J Bates" watermark. Sheet size: 43 x 31 inches. Contemporary hand- coloring in outline. Slightest offsetting. A superior copy. A highly important chart depicting Buzzards Bay and the Vineyard Sound including the Elizabeth Islands and the western half of Martha's Vineyard compiled under the direction of Joseph Des Barres. Showing much more on- shore information than is typical for a Des Barres chart there are details of property boundaries structures even a road from Menemshaw Pond to Tisbury. Native names throughout remain largely unchanged today. This is one of the most interesting charts from the vast ATLANTIC NEPTUNE project. THE ATLANTIC NEPTUNE was the first new survey of American coastlines in a century and the need was very great. Joseph Des Barres was born in Switzerland in 1721 and educated in Basel before emigrating to England and entering the Royal Military College where he learned engineering and the art of surveying. In 1756 Des Barres was commissioned a lieutenant in the Royal American Regiment and dispatched to North America. He served in America during the Seven Years' War under Col. Bouquet Lord Howe and Gen. Amherst and participated in the Quebec campaign as Gen. Wolfe's engineer. In the late 1760's the project of surveying the entirely Atlantic coastline of North america began working from north to south under Des Barres' direction. Although Des Barres was directly responsible for the surveys done of Nova Scotia and the Isle of Sable the surveying of much of the coastline of what became the United States was undertaken by Major Samuel Holland a Dutchman who joined the British army during the French and Indian War as an engineer and became ultimately Surveyor General for North America. Holland was in charge of a rather large staff that included Charles Blaskowitz and George Gauld. They ultimately provided greatly improved charts for the entire coastline and the Gulf of Mexico. All this work was done prior to the Revolution which brought the surveys to an end. The publishing supervised by Des Barres continued throughout the war years.

‎DES BARRES J. F. W. publisher and SAMUEL HOLLAND‎

‎Untitled chart of Boston Bay‎

‎London: J. F. W. Des Barres 1776. Engraved with color wash and outline color. Sheet: 31 x 42 1/4 inches. Expert restoration primarily at the upper margin. Two sheets joined both watermarked "J.Bates" and countermarked "JB". Fourth state of five. Among the earliest charts published by Des Barres were those relevant to the crisis in New England as the War of Independence broke out. This chart depicts the coast of Massachusetts from Salem to Scituate Harbor and includes the complicated hydrography of Boston Harbor and the confluent rivers. A considerable amount of coastal topography is included obviously relevant to warships. Fundamentally a chart for navigators it includes soundings and shoals with particularly strong detail along the Charles and Mystic Rivers as well as in Salem and Marblehead. Samuel Holland was the lead surveyor. In 1764 he was named Surveyor General of both the Province of Quebec and the Northern District of North America. He had a considerable staff and the British Navy assisted in providing soundings. From 1770 to 1774 his squad worked exclusively on northeastern colonies that soon became part of the United States. The surveys that derived from the industry of their work were the most accurate ever made to that time. They were sent to London where Des Barres supervised the engraving and publication. The charts were very soon put to use. Des Barres of Swiss-Huguenot extraction studied under the great mathematician Daniel Bernoulli at the University of Basel before continuing on to the Royal Military College at Woolwich. Upon the outbreak of hostilities with France in 1756 he joined the British Royal American Regiment as a military engineer. He came to the attention of General James Wolfe who appointed him to join his personal detail. During this period he also worked with the future legendary explorer James Cook on a monumental chart of the St. Lawrence River. From 1762 Des Barres was enlisted to survey the coastlines of Nova Scotia Newfoundland and the Gulf of St. Lawrence while his colleague Samuel Holland charted the New England coast. He also managed to gain access to some surveys of the American South Cuba and Jamaica. In 1774 Des Barres returned to England where he began work on The Neptune. His dedication to the project was so strong that often at his own expense he continually updated and added new charts and views up until 1784. That year he returned to Canada where he remained for a further forty years becoming a senior political figure and a wealthy land owner and living to the advanced age of 103.

‎DES BARRES J. F. W. 1721 1824 publisher Samuel HOLLAND 1728 1801 and George CALLENDAR fl. around 1769 surveyors‎

‎A Chart of the Harbour of Boston Composed from different Surveys; but principally from that taken in 1769 by Mr. George Callendar Late Master of His Majesty's Ship the Romney‎

‎London: Published by J.F.W. Des Barres in 'The Atlantic Neptune' 1775. Copper-engraved and etched map with aquatint on two joined sheets. Printed on laid paper with `J Bates' watermark and `JB' countermark in excellent condition. Sheet size: 30 1/4 x 42 5/8 inches. With: The explanatory text leaf titled as above. 1p. folio 25 1/2 x 19 inches. The finest and most celebrated sea chart of Boston Harbor ever produced and a highly important Revolutionary War map depicting details relating to the Siege of Boston: with the very rare explanatory text leaf.<br/> <br/>This is one the most important maps contained in Des Barres' The Atlantic Neptune and one of the most significant large-scale maps of the Revolutionary War. It provides an invaluable record of Boston at the beginning of the war covering the area from the environs of the city out into the open waters of Massachusetts Bay. A particularly striking feature is the use of boldly etched and subtly aquatinted details to capture the diverse topography of the region including the numerous hills islands and river estuaries. It is important to remember that this was issued as a working sea-chart and as such the cartographer has naturally concentrated on features such as depth soundings indicated by detailed lines and based on surveys by Samuel Holland and George Callendar and the navigable channels between the harbor's numerous shoals which are delicately outlined in stipple-engraving. Holland's original manuscript map is today preserved in the British Hydrographic Library at Taunton Somerset. The present map shows the city of Boston with its streets carefully outlined occupying a pear-shaped peninsula a position that would soon prove precarious to its British defenders in the escalating conflict. This is the second state of five of Des Barres' chart and is identical to the Henry Stevens Collection variant 96D in the National Maritime Museum Greenwich. This state shows a number of notable changes when compared with the original and was evidently altered to take particular account of the Siege of Boston April 19 1775 to March 17 1776. Henry Stevens noted that this state depicted the addition of "Numerous Forts Batteries Redoubts &c. which have been inserted in many places notably on the Charles Town peninsula and on the mainland between 'Willis Creek' and 'Mystic River' also on the east and north side of 'Charles River' below 'Cambridge'.also to the south of 'Boston Neck' and 'Dorchester Neck'.This state is almost as rare as the first state. It is found in some copies of the earliest edition of the Neptune." The accuracy scope and artistic virtue of Des Barres's Chart of the Harbour of Boston was apparent to his contemporaries and it became the main source map of the area for decades to come. Joseph Frederick Wallet Des Barres was born in Switzerland where his Huguenot ancestors had fled following the repeal of the Edict of Nantes. He studied under the great mathematician Daniel Bernoulli at the University of Basel before immigrating to Britain where he trained at the Royal Military College Woolwich. Upon the outbreak of hostilities with France in 1756 he joined the British Royal American Regiment as a military engineer. He came to the attention of General James Wolfe who appointed him to join his personal detail. During this period he also worked with the legendary future explorer James Cook on a monumental chart of the St. Lawrence River. Upon the conclusion of the Seven Years War Britain's empire in North America was greatly expanded and this required the creation of a master atlas featuring new and accurate sea charts for use by the Royal Navy. Des Barres was enlisted to survey the coastlines of Nova Scotia Newfoundland and the Gulf of St. Lawrence. With these extremely accurate surveys in hand Des Barres returned to London in 1774 where the Royal Navy charged him with the Herculean task of producing the atlas. He was gradually forwarded the manuscripts of numerous advanced surveys conducted by British cartographers in the American Colonies Jamaica and Cuba of which the present map is based on the work of Samuel Holland conducted in the 1760s. The result was The Atlantic Neptune which became the most celebrated sea atlas of its era containing the first systematic survey of the east coast of North America. Des Barres's synergy of great empirical accuracy with the peerless artistic virtue of his aquatint views created a work that "has been described as the most splendid collection of charts plates and views ever published" National Maritime Museum Catalogue. The Neptune eventually consisted of four volumes and Des Barres's dedication to the project was so strong that often at his own expense he continually updated and added new charts and views to various editions up until 1784 producing over 250 charts and views many appearing in several variations. All of these charts were immensely detailed featuring both hydrographical and topographical information such that in many cases they remained the most authoritative maps of the regions covered for several decades. Following the completion of The Neptune Des Barres returned to Canada where he remained for a further forty years becoming a senior political figure and a wealthy land owner living to the advanced age of 103.<br/> <br/>Cf.

With large inset titled: Part of Hudsons River shewing the position of Fort Montgomery and Fort Clinton with the Chevaux de Frieze cables chains &c to obstruct the passage of his Majesty's forces up the river. By Lieut. John Knight of the Royal Navy in 1777‎

‎London 1779. Engraved and aquatint map period hand colouring. 14 lettered references large inset with title as above. Rare revolutionary chart of the Hudson River showing the American defenses on the eve of the Battle of Fort Montgomery.<br/> <br/>On October 6 1777 a British force led by Lieutenant General Sir Henry Clinton attacked Forts Montgomery and Clinton from the landward side where the American defenses were only partially completed. Support from cannon fire from British ships on the Hudson River that had passed through the chevaux de frise on the lower river. By the end of the day both forts had fallen to the British who burned the forts and tore down the stonework buildings. However the battle was a pyrrhic victory for the British. The campaign against the forts caused delays in reinforcing General John Burgoyne at Saratoga where Americans forced the British surrender ten days later at the Battle of Saratoga before Clinton's forces could arrive. The present map which depicts the Forts and the River defenses prior to the battle is from The Atlantic Neptune the finest large scale sea atlas of the United States and Canadian Atlantic coastline ever produced. The maps in the atlas were produced over a seven-year period 1775-82 and are well known for their accurate portrayal of various sounds bays bars harbors as well as navigational hazards. This atlas was used extensively by the Royal Navy during the American Revolution. Des Barres studied under the great mathematician Daniel Bernoulli at the University of Basel before continuing on to the Royal Military College at Woolwich. On the outbreak of the Seven Years war in 1756 he joined the British Royal American Regiment as a military engineer. He came to the attention of General James Wolfe who appointed him to be his aide-de-camp. From 1762 Des Barres was enlisted to survey the coastlines of Nova Scotia Newfoundland and the Gulf of St.Lawrence while his colleague Samuel Holland charted the New England coast and further south. In 1774 Des Barres returned to England where he began work on the Neptune. His dedication to the project was so strong that often at his own expense he continually updated and added new charts and views up until 1784. That year he returned to Canada where he remained for a further forty years becoming a senior political figure and a wealthy land owner and living to the advanced age of 103. The Atlantic Neptune was the first British sea atlas of her North American colonies and one of the most important achievements of eighteenth century cartography. With an official commission from the Royal Navy Des Barres published the first volume in London in 1775 which was soon followed by further volumes. Des Barres' monumental endeavor eventually featured over two-hundred charts and aquatint views many being found in several states. All of the charts were immensely detailed featuring both hydrographical and topographical information. The Neptune met with the highest acclaim from the beginning and is today widely regarded as superior to all other atlases produced during its time. Henry Stevens identified only a single state of this chart issued coloured or uncoloured which appeared in some examples volume four part two of the Atlantic Nepture; the map however is not listed in the engraved list of maps for that section and given the rarity was likely not issued in all copies.<br/> <br/>National Maritime Museum: Henry Stevens Collection: HNS156; Cf.
