Rare and Fascinating
Historical Maps of Louisiana
This
CD contains 71 rare antique maps of Louisiana in MrSid format.
This format allows you to see the entire map or drill down for
the smallest details. If you printed one of these maps at full
size, it would be about 36"x36" or larger (way more
than can fit on a computer screen) so you can imagine how much
detail they all have. (MrSID software is included on the CD.)

The
table below shows the description and a small image of each
map on this incredible history CD.
