This is an 1881 U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey nautical chart or maritime map of the northern Atlantic coastline of the United States. The map depicts the Atlantic coastline from the Isle au Haut and Penobscot Bay, Maine to Cape Cod and Kingston, Massachusetts and from the coastline into the Atlantic Ocean as far as Cashe's Ledge and Jeffrey's Bank. A highly detailed depiction of the coastline, all of the river mouths islands, and islets are illustrated in detail. Innumerable depth soundings are included all along the coast. Lighthouses have all been shaded yellow. Cities and towns along the coast are labeled, including Bangor, Kennebunkport, and Portland, Maine; Portsmouth, New Hampshire; and Newburyport, Salem, and Boston, Massachusetts. A table of light houses, with latitude and longitude, character of the light, the time between flashes, the distance at which the light is visible (in nautical miles) and other information included is situated on the upper left. Information about buoys, 'life saving stations', tides, and soundings, and other information important to the mariner is included below the table containing the information about light houses.
