About this map

Annapolis and the U.S. Naval Academy anchor the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay in this turn-of-the-century coastal survey. Across the water, the landscape of Maryland’s Eastern Shore is defined by an intricate network of tidal rivers, including the Choptank River, Wye River, and Miles River. The region’s economic lifeblood is clearly visible through its transition from water to rail, with lines like the Baltimore Chesapeake and Atlantic RR and the Queen Annes and Virginia RR connecting interior hubs like Easton and Queenstown to important shipping points.
