The sharp contrast between the mountain-and-valley terrain and the burgeoning coal economy of East Tennessee is documented in this 1895 survey. Major topography such as Cumberland Mountain and Walden Ridge dictates the layout of the land, while the Southern R. R. and the Knoxville and Ohio R. R. provide the vital industrial links between the interior and the outside world. Centered on the community of Briceville, the map captures a network of small settlements and mining towns including Coal Creek and Montgomery.
