Additional Information
Published in the midst of the American Revolution and only one year after, Revolutionary Forces reclaimed control of Boston from the British forces who had taken control during the Siege of Boston. The Siege began following the battles of Lexington and Concord as the Continental Army started minor skirmishes in the city and began to cut off British supply lines into the city from both land and sea. Boston was the political center of the American Revolution as well as the site of the Boston Massacre in 1770, which began the calls for independence from Colonial rule.
This map was published by Sir Thomas Hyde Page and is unique in that it’s a British work created during the revolution and not in the years preceding it. It also bears an inscription detailing the British retreat to Nova Scotia and the erection of the Battery at Fort Hill. Boston remains one of the most iconic American cities, and its role in shaping the political, cultural, and economic future of the United States cannot be underestimated. Boston is one of the oldest municipalities in the United States and was first settled in 1630. Its role as a central manufacturing hub continued following the conclusion of the American Revolution, and it has remained one of the most influential American cities for centuries.
This map's distinctive aesthetic and antique style immediately transports the viewer back in time, creating an indelible bond between the past and present; this is an authentic piece of American cartographical history.
