About this map

The Penobscot River serves as the central artery for this coastal Maine region at the turn of the century, dividing Waldo and Hancock counties. The shoreline is punctuated by maritime activity and defense, most notably at the stone fortifications of Fort Knox. The river's importance to commerce is evident in the numerous landings and settlements like Bucksport and Winterport that grew along its banks. Further inland, the landscape rises into significant peaks such as Mt Waldo and McCloud Mountain, where a Quarry signifies the local extraction industries of the era.
