USGS Topo · Published 1981About this map
The Red River Arsenal dominates the mid-century landscape of Bowie County, showing a massive complex of military infrastructure and boundaries south of Hooks. This 1954 survey, updated with 1970 revisions, illustrates a transition from rural homesteads to a significant defense installation. The influence of the Texas and Pacific and St Louis Southwestern railroads highlights the area's importance as a logistics hub, while several country schools and churches like the Arkadelphia Sch and Myrtle Springs Ch remain as markers of the earlier community fabric.
