Detailed topographic map of New York, Long Island and surrounding areas with positions of American and British military forces during the Battle of Brooklyn during August 22-27, 1776. This antique copperplate engraved map is attributed to J.N. Buache and includes many nautical points of interest, as during that period access from the sea was often faster than by land.

Named features include Fort Independence, Fort Lee, Hudson River, York Bay, Oyster Bay, Hell Gate, Governor's Island, the East River, Staten Island, Bergen, Flushing, Brooklyn, East Chester and West Chester. Numerous roads and the position of several named ships are also noted including the Roebuck, the Rose, the Greyhound, and the Thunder.
