Default Shipping routes research

Somewhere, of course not to hand, I have a world chart that shows both
sailing and steam routs for voyages between most ports for various
seasons.

I have no idea who printed it but it appears to be a US chart.

The sailing routes, of course, generally follow the monsoon and trade
wind paths while the steam routes are generally more direct but
following the same basic pattern.

That may be a "Pilot Chart" .... can't remember the full name and number
but they were/are(?) done by month
