Abstract:
This article examines the early 18th century maps made by cartographer and mariner Captain James Wimble, as well as period cartography of the Carolina coast. References to other cartographic efforts, both previous and contemporary to Wimble, of this geography is included, as well as specific study of Wimble's maps. A fold-out print of Wimble's 1733 and 1738 maps of the Carolina coastline measuring roughly 12.5\" x 22\" is also included.
