The map "The World including the late Discoveries, by Captn Cook and other Circum Navigators carefully laid down to the present time," was created by Thomas Bowen in 1775. This map was one of Bowen's notable works and reflected the latest geographical knowledge of the time.

The map depicted the routes and discoveries of famous explorers such as Captain James Cook, who made significant voyages of exploration in the Pacific during the 18th century. It would have included Cook's expeditions to Australia, New Zealand, the Pacific Islands, and other parts of the world. Additionally, the map would have incorporated other important geographical information available at that time.

Thomas Bowen was an 18th-century British cartographer and engraver. He was active during the mid-1700s and is known for his work in creating and publishing maps and atlases. Bowen produced maps of various regions, including England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and other parts of the world.

Some of his notable works include "A New and Accurate Map of the Islands of Newfoundland, Cape Briton, St. John and Anticosta," published in 1755, and "A New and Accurate Map of the Kingdoms of Scotland" from 1757. Bowen also collaborated with other prominent mapmakers and publishers of his time.

His maps are known for their detailed craftsmanship and accuracy, reflecting the cartographic standards of the period.
