Description

Scarce map of the United States, showing navigable waterways, issued for the Report of the Inland Waterways Commission.

The map shows various types of navigable rivers:

  • Less than 3 feet of water
  • 3 to 5 feet
  • 5 to 6 feet
  • 6 feet or more

The headwaters of each river are also shown, along with "Slack-Water Navigation and Canals."

An interesting map of the US, issued at a time when inland navigation by river or canal was a vital part of the American economy and transporation infrastructure.
