USGS Topo · Published 1960About this map
The confluence of the Maumee River and the Auglaize River at Defiance forms the primary geographic focus of this early twentieth-century landscape. The city is depicted as a vital transportation nexus, where the Miami and Erie Canal meets a dense network of iron rails including the Wabash Railroad and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. This infrastructure highlights the transition from nineteenth-century waterborne commerce to the peak of the industrial rail era.
