About this map

Casco Bay defines this coastal landscape, where the early 20th-century maritime economy is etched into the shoreline through complex steamboat routes and military fortifications. The strategic importance of the harbor entrance is visible in the cluster of defensive sites including Fort Williams, Fort Preble, and Fort Scammel. Further out, Halfway Rock Light and the Cape Elizabeth Lightship manage the approaches to the Fore River.
