About this map

The Ohio River dominates this landscape, its winding course forming the critical border between Indiana and Kentucky just before World War I. The river's influence is evident in the dense network of wetlands such as Deep Slough and McClair Slough, while Lock and Dam No 48 marks an early era of navigational engineering. Major rail lines including the Louisville and Nashville RR and the Illinois Central RR converge here, supporting the riverfront industrial hubs of Evansville and Henderson.
