1943 Map of Crooked Island

About this map

St Andrew Sound and the open expanse of the Gulf of Mexico dominate this coastal survey produced during the Second World War. The map centers on the narrow barrier geography of Crooked Island, a dynamic landform defined by shifting Sand Dunes along the Florida panhandle. This 1943 edition, prepared under the direction of the Corps of Engineers, captures a largely undeveloped stretch of the Bay County shoreline as it existed before the extensive mid-century coastal developments. The map provides a precise record of the natural coastline and bathymetry in an era of heightened maritime and military awareness along the Gulf coast.
