BOSTON - TelAve -- Reedy Press is pleased to announce the release of our newest local interest book, Historic Maps of Boston: A History of America's Walking City in Rare Maps, by JQ Louise.

Historic Maps of Boston is an exploration of Boston's history through the art of cartography. Through historic and contemporary maps, readers will trace Boston's transformation from a small colonial peninsula to a thriving modern city, shaped by revolution, immigration, industry, land-making, and cultural shifts. Cartography becomes a powerful lens, revealing not only where streets, neighborhoods, and landmarks are located, but also how they came to be.

By focusing on maps as historical pieces of art, this book shows how cartography captures the ambitions, challenges, and identity of Boston across time. Shorelines shift, districts expand, and public spaces take on new meaning, all visible through the lines, scales, and details of the mapmaker's work. These visual records offer insight into how Bostonians understood their world and how the city was imagined, organized, and rebuilt from one era to the next.
