north. J. Bachman, del. and lith.
The city of Boston, Massachusetts was founded on September 30th, 1630, and is
one of the oldest cities in the United States.
Founded by Puritan colonists, the town grew quickly, and was the largest
city in North America until it was surpassed by Philadelphia in the mid-1700's.
The city played an extremely important role in the American Revolution - the
Boston Massacre and the Boston Tea Party are iconic events in the history of the
United States, and the city was the site of several major battles. The
city is also home to over 100 universities, including Harvard University - the
oldest in the nation. This beautiful map provides a look back at a city
rich in history.
