About this map

Blue Mountain and the prominent Shochary Ridge dominate this survey, which captures the rural agricultural and early industrial landscape of Berks, Lehigh, and Schuylkill counties before the mid-century. The Philadelphia and Reading RR snakes through the valley of the Schuylkill River, passing Windsor Castle and the Pennsylvania Blue Locks. In the southern reaches, the famous Crystal Cave is already a noted landmark near Kutztown, while the northern hills are dotted with remote outposts like Snyders and Mantz along the Lizard Creek drainage.
