USGS Topo · Published 1896About this map
The Tennessee River winds through the heart of this East Tennessee landscape, serving as a vital artery long before modern bridges replaced the numerous river crossings shown here. A dense network of transport is evident, from the Sewer Ferry and McElwee Ferry to the industrial spine of the Cincinnati Southern Railroad and the Tennessee and Sequatchee Valley Railroad. The terrain is dominated by the Cumberland Escarpment and the Crab Orchard Mountains, where unique geologic features like Grassy Cove and Swagerty Cove break the ridge lines.
