Rather than a flat survey, this map shows Texas from an angled, high vantage, as if a viewer were hovering above its towns, rivers and rail lines. Pictorial maps like this were popular in the late 1800s, when railroads were drawing settlers and businesses wanted images that promoted growth and showed how much territory a region held. Panoramic views of this kind compress vast distances onto one sheet, so the small towns, waterways and routes become a record of how the landscape was being settled and connected. The labels and tiny buildings reward close study.
