One page map printed on one side, showing Penobscot Bay from Isle Au Haut north to Sandy Point .
In three areas "sections" are shown. Each one is a rectangular area a quarter inch wide extending across the land area. Within this strip the nature of the rock at each point is shown. A legend in the margin of the map interprets the meaning of the markings.
One strip stretches across Vinal Haven and North Haven; one extends from Northport across the north part of Islesboro and then angles down to cross the northern end of Deer Isle; and the third runs from the Stockton Springs area across northern Cape Jellison and on southeast to the north tip of Long Island
May be useful in understanding the Revolutionary War naval battle of Penobscot Bay, Saltonstall/Revere et al.
