About this map

The Piscataqua River and Great Bay anchor this 1941 tactical survey, detailing the vital coastal and riverine corridors of southeastern New Hampshire and southwestern Maine just as World War II began. The complex estuarine system is defined by numerous points and islands, including Dover Point, Adams Pt, and Footman I, while the inland landscape is characterized by its reliance on the Boston and Maine RR and the Cocheco River. In Durham, the grounds of the State College appear alongside the town's early residential layout.
