Three maps are printed for Robert Sayer; three matching outline charts were to be used for Gaultier's learning game. The players were to lay balls marked with names of kingdoms, towns, seas, &c. on the proper location. There are 13 lessons for the British Isles, 13 for Europe, 9 for Asia and America, but 8 for Africa and only one for the New-discovered islands including "New Holland," later Australia.
