Fine map of the World with outline colouring and showing only short lengths of the Antarctic coast line but tremendous detail of the Arctic passages North of the 80th parallel. It is to be noted that all the names shown on the passage between Greenland and the Islands off Northern Canada fail to appear on a modern map!
