The tidal landscape of Charleston County's outer coast comes into sharp focus during the late 1950s, showing a network of barrier islands and protected sounds before significant modern development. Capers Island and Dewees Island remain largely untouched, separated by the deep waters of Capers Inlet and Dewees Inlet. The map documents the intricate waterways essential to coastal navigation, including the Intracoastal Waterway as it snakes through Copahee Sound and behind Isle of Palms.
