About this map

Stonington serves as the bustling maritime hub for this coastal area at the dawn of the twentieth century, anchored by its harbor and nearby Crotch I. and Sand I. within Merchant Row. The map captures a detailed geography of island life, from the scattered hamlets of Sunset, South Deer Isle, and Mountainville to the isolated community of Isle au Haut across the Isle au Haut Bay. Insight into the era's transport is found in the established Steamboat Route that navigated through Eggemoggin Reach, connecting the mainland to maritime outposts like Sunshine and Naskeag Harbor. Local navigation was further aided by landmarks such as the Deer I. Thorofare L.H.. The intricate network of coves, including Crockett Cove and Southeast Harbor, highlights the reliance on water-based travel and industry in this Maine archipelago.
