About this map

Lake Winnipesaukee dominates this mid-century survey, revealing the intricate shoreline and island geography of New Hampshire's Lakes Region during the 1950s. The map details a landscape transitioning from rural farming and timber heritage into a premier summer destination, centered around the industrial and transport hub of Laconia and the growing resort village of Weirs Beach. Navigation and leisure take center stage, with the Mt Washington Boat Route weaving through major islands like Bear Island, Long Island, and Rattlesnake Island.
