A four sheet map of the entire United States, derived from the Warren/Freyhold Map of the Western Territories of 1868. A note under the title states "In the compilation of this map the Authorities designated on the map of the Western Territories as well as others of more recent date have been used." The topography is simplified from the earlier map, the scale reduced, and the transpacific railroad is shown completed. The Military Districts are outlined in red; map is in full color. There was another issue in 1870 (Hudson #8-82, Civil War Maps). Relief shown by shadings.
