A fine map of the state with thirty-three parishes delineated and named. Shows good detail along the coast including marshes and bays, and depicts numerous towns and settlements as well as a few early railroads. Not to be confused with the maps from the Comprehensive Atlas, this map is several inches larger and carries much more information.
