Note:
Heavily illustrated map and borders highlights the history of the state with colorful illustrations of places, people and events from colonial days, both on the map and in the decorative border. At the left and right edges are the arms of the educational institutions of the state. Particularly bold and attractive are the images of the many sailing boats offshore. At lower right is the island of Nantucket, with the Pequod sailing close by, the lookout calling "Have you seen Moby Dick, Captain Ahab!!"
