Recherche dans la collection - Plan du port de Chiboucton à la coste de l' Acadie. Levé en 1746 par M. De Chabert... Dheulland, sculp. Page 123. [cartographic material]

This chart shows Chebucto Harbour, giving depth soundings and indicates the position of Halifax. The chart appears as page 123 in Chabert's 1753 work Voyage Fait Par Ordre du Roi en 1750 et 1751 dans l' Amerique Septentrionale... The map was also printed on a large sheet along with the five other Chabert charts. The sheet was then included in the Neptune Americo Septentrional (1750-1806) as plate 24. The LAC holds five copies of this map, one being the book copy described. Three others are found on three single sheet copies of the large composits map taken from the Neptune... The final copy is a variant located in a copy of Neptune... This map varies from the rest only in the engraving of the compass points.
