Terrific double page sheet filled with detail. The state's growth is evident with newly formed counties (here all 54 are present). 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. Public Lands are limited to the western panhandle of Indian Territory. Great map of the states.
