Default Kings Mountain Map?

Would like to see a battle map of Kings Mountain.

Also, Andy told me once that the geography of Boston and Boston Harbor has changed dramatically since the 1770s.

Would like to see a comparison of Boston/Boston Harbor then and now.

Thanks!

Steve

Glad to help. Did not see any side by side comparisons online though.

Default Boston; then and now

Rigger,

This is the best I could do for you. On the attached website you can zoom in and out as close as you need to. I've also attached a map of Boston in 1776. The area of water, still called the Back Bay, was, in 1776, a salt marsh. It was filled in starting in 1857 by literally cutting down the hills surrounding the city and towns with the fill brought in by railroad cars. Much of what is today downtown Boston was once covered by water.
