About this map

The Penobscot River and its western branch, the Stillwater River, define the industrial and academic core of this mid-1940s landscape. Between these waters lies Marsh Island, home to the sprawling University of Maine campus and the manufacturing centers of Old Town, Stillwater, and Great Works. The river's flow is punctuated by numerous islands like Orson Island and Boom Islands, indicating a history of timber management and river-driving commerce.
