A 1769 London travel account of East Florida by William Stork, with a journal by the Philadelphia botanist John Bartram written on a trip from St. Augustine up the St. John's River, published for English readers and collectors. The one picture is a bookplate rather than an illustration from the text: a sailing ship on choppy water beside an ornate Ex Libris label and a printed owner's name, drawn in fine black line with a bordered frame.
