The Rio Grande and Pecos River define this arid landscape along the international border during the early 1940s. Centered on Langtry, the map illustrates a region dominated by a sprawling network of family-held cattle and sheep operations, including the Rancho Grande, Arledge Ranch, and Schraubert Ranch. The infrastructure of the era is anchored by the Texas and New Orleans (Southern Pacific) railroad, which runs parallel to the Jefferson Davis Memorial Highway through the limestone canyons.
