Abstract
A hand-colored map of the geology of the eastern part of Massachusetts annotated by Edward Hitchcock. It focuses on the junction of the stratified and unstratified rocks and has been corrected based on Hitchcock's examinations in spring 1839. On the reverse Hitchcock has listed several types of minerals, rocks, and metals and where in Massachusetts they have been found. It is unclear who the artist of the map is.
