About this map

The coastal barrier islands and inland estuaries of the Maryland-Delaware border appear here just as the regional rail network and maritime safety infrastructure reached their peak. Life on the shore centered around Isle of Wight Bay and Little Assawoman Bay, where a complex system of hammocks, guts, and points like Johns Hammock and Jenkins Pt. defined the landscape. On the mainland, the Baltimore Chesapeake and Atlantic R. R. connected the growing resort at Ocean City to agricultural hubs like Berlin.
