This detailed steel engraved atlas map of Alabama shows roads, railroads, canals, county towns, and more. Copyright date appears to be 1855, but census figures from 1860 are included on verso and the county configuration is up to date to 1870, with the re-established Colbert in the northwest corner. It is surrounded by Colton's signature strapwork border.
