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.    Dimensions: 36" x 29"   Item #1W-MA-BO-1877   Shipping Weight: 2 lbs.   PRICE: $38.95
