Most of the ships lost belonged to the United States, the second heaviest sufferer being Norway, with four vessels. The above map shows the range within which the German U-boat, or U-boats (the number of the raiders is still in doubt) operated during the sixteen days since the attack on shipping in American home waters began. It will be seen that the submarine campaign has been carried almost to the threshold of America's greatest shipping centre, and that the ships have been sunk on the busiest traffic routes along the coast as far south as Cape Charles. The American naval authorities were first aware of the German submarine's presence on June 2, and although naval and aerial patrols have been busy ever since, the U-boat has been able to elude detection and continue its campaign of destruction.\"--At foot of map.","Text and 3 illustrations related to the First World War on verso."]},{"label":"Coverage-Spatial","value":"Atlantic Coast (Middle Atlantic States)"},{"label":"Subject","value":["World War, 1914-1918","Submarine warfare","Merchant ships"]},{"label":"Genre","value":["Thematic maps","Pictorial maps","Maps"]},{"label":"Rights Description","value":"No Copyright - United States"},{"label":"Type","value":"Cartographic material"},{"label":"Repository","value":"Map Library"},{"label":"Local Bib ID","value":"99954806096905899"},{"label":"Collection Title","value":"World War I Maps"}],"description":"Pictorial map showing the sinking of 20 Allied vessels by German U-boats, mainly off the coast of Delaware and New Jersey, but as far south as Chesapeake Bay.","thumbnail":{"@id":"https://images.digital.library.illinois.edu/iiif/2/0c1f44f0-5aa4-0139-7734-02d0d7bfd6e4-3/full/!256,256/0/default.jpg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://images.digital.library.illinois.edu/iiif/2/0c1f44f0-5aa4-0139-7734-02d0d7bfd6e4-3","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"}},"service":[{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://images.digital.library.illinois.edu/iiif/2/0c1f44f0-5aa4-0139-7734-02d0d7bfd6e4-3","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"}],"logo":"https://digital.library.illinois.edu/assets/Illinois-Logo-Reversed-Orange-RGB-100-4dc138603db54952c91732afd189efd828ba543796a2ab0f9a81afcf2b308b27.png","related":{"@id":"https://digital.library.illinois.edu/items/c90c61c0-5a9d-0139-7734-02d0d7bfd6e4-9","format":"text/html"},"seeAlso":[{"@id":"https://digital.library.illinois.edu/items/c90c61c0-5a9d-0139-7734-02d0d7bfd6e4-9.json","format":"application/json"},{"@id":"https://digital.library.illinois.edu/items/c90c61c0-5a9d-0139-7734-02d0d7bfd6e4-9.atom","format":"application/atom+xml"}],"viewingDirection":"left-to-right","viewingHint":"paged","navDate":"1918-01-01T06:00:00Z","license":"https://rightsstatements.org/page/NoC-US/1.0/","attribution":"No Copyright - United States","within":{"@id":"https://digital.library.illinois.edu/collections/23c002f0-0b9b-0133-a7c7-0050569601ca-7/iiif","format":"application/json"},"sequences":[{"@id":"https://digital.library.illinois.edu/items/c90c61c0-5a9d-0139-7734-02d0d7bfd6e4-9/sequence/page","@type":"sc:Sequence","label":"Pages","viewingHint":"paged","canvases":[{"@id":"https://digital.library.illinois.edu/items/0cb82e10-5aa4-0139-7734-02d0d7bfd6e4-2/canvas/canvas1","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"99954806096905899-001","height":4000,"width":2816,"metadata":[{"label":"Title","value":"99954806096905899-001"},{"label":"Creator","value":"Varga, Imre"},{"label":"Scale","value":"Not drawn to scale"},{"label":"Place of Publication","value":"Istanbul (Turkey)"},{"label":"Publisher","value":"[Khaireya and Co.
