The 1858 Map of Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard & Nantucket
edited by Adam Gamble, introduction by Joseph Garver

This must-own book for anyone with an interest in the history of Cape Cod and the islands is based on an original five-foot-square map from 1858 providing an almost encyclopedic overview of the region at that time. Besides a complete map of each county, it features forty insets of villages, a table of distances, a geological map, illustrations of streets and ships, a statistical table, and business directories. Published in a luxurious, display-style book, it features illuminating essays by Cape Cod writer Robert Finch, Cape Cod historian James Coogan, Harvard Library Map Curator Dr. Joseph Garver, and Cape Cod Community College President Dr. Kathleen Schatzberg. All profits from the sale of this book go to support the million-dollar renovation and expansion of the William Brewster Nickerson Cape Cod History Archives at Cape Cod Community College's Wilkens Library.
