About this map

North Haven and the island of Vinalhaven anchor this complex coastal survey of the Fox Islands in the mid-1940s. The maritime landscape is defined by deep incisions like Seal Bay and The Basin, where the rugged granite coastline meets the waters of Penobscot Bay and Isle Au Haut Bay. Settlement patterns are clustered around protected anchorages, most notably at Carvers Harbor and Pulpit Harbor, reflecting a late-era fishing and quarrying economy.
