As usual the bored droids at Google have not scanned the plates in Weddell's book correctly so the detailed map of the South Shetlands that Weddell refers to is incomplete.
However those interested in early 19th century navigation will probably be interested in the appendices. Pages and pages of navigational examples including rating chronometers (Weddell had three), long by chron and lunars. Maybe fork this to a new thread?
