Description

A General Plan of Newport, Rhode Island
By Joseph Tarella
Centered on the iconic New England resort harbor town, this map situates Newport in context with the surrounding waterways and islands (Jamestown) and highlights the strategic positioning of the original colonial enclave. With its periodic reinvention of itself from seafaring pilgrims to prosperous whalers, then later to an upscale summer retreat (The Breakers) and yachting center (America’s Cup), this natural port has been part of the American story since the days of the Founding Fathers.
