You can visualize how the city grew through landfill and annexation and where The Great Molasses Flood flew. With data collected from public sources, you can also see how structural forces have shaped the social and lived experience of Bostonians: inside are maps of redlining, urban renewal practices, and the busing of schoolchildren. Andy Woodruff's inventive cartography captures quirks of the city as well, such as Boston's distinctive three-decker residences, rogue turkeys, and Smoots. These clear and colorful maps make The Hub's history, urban plans, and lore easy-to-read and engaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Belt Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/19\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781540270030\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 136","brand":"Andy Woodruff","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52403601703093,"sku":"9781540270030","price":25.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_5edd0339-245e-4c2f-9365-61fc086b2ac5.jpg?v=1774969899","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/boston-in-50-maps-9781540270030","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
