About this map

Carson and the silver mining centers of the Comstock Lode dominate this late nineteenth-century landscape. The Virginia and Truckee Railroad winds through the terrain, connecting the capital to Virginia City, Gold Hill, and the mills at Empire. The survey captures the industrial and political heart of Nevada before the turn of the century, showing the concentration of settlements like Silver and Dayton along the Carson River.
