About this map

Sacramento anchor's the southwestern corner of this survey, which captures the burgeoning rail and river networks of Northern California in the late 19th century. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the American River and its various forks, such as the North Fork and South Fork, which carve through the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. The Central Pacific Railroad and the Placerville & Sacramento R. R. serve as the primary arteries for commerce, connecting established mining and agricultural hubs like Lincoln, Rocklin, and Auburn.
