This 1926 edition is one of the last examples of this map, which first appeared in the 1890s. It shows the Flagler railroad system from Jacksonville to Miami and Key West, with steamboat connections to Havana. Apart from the panhandle, which does not appear on this map, all the current Florida counties are depicted along with cities, roads, rivers and lakes. Includes an inset at bottom "Map of Florida and the West Indies."
