Terrific double-page sheet filled with detail. The state's growth is evident with newly formed counties in the former huge panhandle section of Young Territory. Many railroads end between cities as the map shows the exact progress to date. Details include numerous named railroads, cities, towns, watershed, forts, springs, and much more. Seven large insets include city plans for Austin and Galveston, the Entrance to Galveston Bay, and the River Systems. In Indian Territory the Public Lands are limited to the western panhandle. Copyright date 1876, but published circa 1883.
