This detailed map of these two distinct Indian reservations is divided into the familiar township pattern. A legend identifies Indian allotments, school lands, town sites, railroads, and wagon roads. The large sections colored in black depict those lands "selected by homesteaders." The 1908 Act referred to in the map title opened vast amounts of “surplus” lands on both reservations to settlement despite the objections of the tribes. Lithographed by Norris Peters in Washington D.C. A rare working copy with only one example listed in OCLC.
