The Rio Grande carves a deep path through the Texas brush country in the 1940s, marking the international border between United States and Mexico. This military survey, later reprinted for civil use, documents a rugged landscape where commerce and transit were defined by river crossings like Los Burros Crossing and Buey Crossing. Industrial infrastructure of the era is anchored by the C P & L Co Steam Plant situated near the confluence where the Devils River meets the border.
