Cross Lake and its intricate northern shorelines dominate this 1932 topographic study, revealing the complex water systems of northwest Louisiana before extensive modern modification. The landscape is defined by the Twelvemile Shreveport Waterway and the meandering course of the Red River, where old parish lines like the Old Caddo Bossier Parish Line follow former river bends that have since shifted. This era shows a transition in river crossings, notably featuring both the Albany Ferry and the Jim Moorings Ferry Bridge near Cash Point.
