Historic USGS Maps of New England

Global information systems and satellite imagery have redefined our cartographic impressions of the world. Yet long before these new technologies, in 1882, the USGS began a topographic atlas of the United States. The University of New Hampshire has made available a collection of these USGS topographic maps with complete geographic coverage of New England from the 1890s to the 1950s. These beautiful maps can be accessed via an alphabetical quadrangle listing, an alphabetical town index, or by clicking on the appropriate area of an image map. This is an outstanding resource for an antiquated cartographic art form.
