The U. S. Naval Academy and the historic streets of Annapolis anchor this coastal survey, where the Severn River meets the expansive Chesapeake Bay. The map highlights a critical maritime and transit era for the Maryland shoreline, notably featuring the M. D. & V. R. R. rail line that stretches across Kent Island through Stevensville to the ferry connection at Claiborne. This rail-to-water network was essential for connecting the Eastern Shore with the capital and Baltimore markets.
