This is Ivan Chisholm and Robert Winn's 1947 pictorial map of Boston from 1630 to the 1940s - featuring the Midnight Ride made by Paul Revere, William Dawes, and Dr. Prescott. A Map of Boston A brilliant green highlights Boston as it appeared during the American Revolutionary War (1775 - 1783). A black line marks the original water line, while streets and piers constructed on reclaimed land appear in white. Streets are labeled, and Boston landmarks appear pictorially: the Custom House, numerous churches and cathedrals, the North and South Battery, the State House, and Boston's North Station. Other vignettes illustrate moments in Boston's history, such as the prohibition of bathtubs, the 'Cage for Sabbath Breakers', the pillory, and the stocks. Red dots mark historic locations, including the site of the Boston Massacre, Samuel Adams' birthplace, Benjamin Franklin's birthplace, and numerous taverns and inns. Paul Revere's Ride A pictorial map celebrating what has become known as 'Paul Revere's Ride' occupies the verso. The map traces the routes Paul Revere and William Dawes from Boston to Lexington, marking their stops and recounting the events of the famed Midnight Ride. Illustrations of houses, taverns, and other period locations appear alongside depictions of the Minute Man statues in Lexington and Concord.
