About this map

Edgartown and Oak Bluffs serve as the primary hubs of activity on this early wartime survey of the island. The map details a landscape of coastal settlements and maritime infrastructure, including the recently established Marthas Vineyard Airport and a network of essential lighthouses such as West Chop LH and East Chop LH. Beyond the main island, the Elizabeth Islands chain stretches southwest, featuring Cuttyhunk Island and Naushon Island, which guard the entrance to Buzzards Bay.
