This unusual Civil War period map extends west to about the 103rd Meridian to include Dakota and Texas, and part of the newly created Colorado. Fine detail of railroads, mail routes, forts, etc., and locates the Pony Express Route. Excellent detail of the railroads present at the beginning of the Civil War. The four ships off the southern coast symbolize the Union blockade. This edition is identical to the 1861 version except this map has the decorative border added and the spelling of "Shewing" in the title is updated.
