Evidence, credit & reuse: Public domain in the United States: book published in Brooklyn in 1904; faithful scan. Optimized image crops the printed map from page 68 and rotates it 90 degrees clockwise so its title and map labels are upright. Original whole-page download is preserved. Map is schematic and includes waterways and other contextual lines. Printed map extracted from page 68, excluding running book title and page number, then rotated 90 degrees clockwise; map content unaltered.
