About this piece

Vermont in a color-printed county map titled "Vermont", from the Ninth Edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica, published in 1888. The sheet is engraved and printed in color, with the counties tinted in strong pink, yellow, green and orange.

The state is drawn in full, with Quebec along the top, New Hampshire and the Connecticut River on the east, New York and Lake Champlain on the west, and Massachusetts at the foot. The towns, county seats and railroads are engraved throughout, and the town and county names are lettered large over each area. The Green Mountains are drawn in hachures down the middle of the state, and Lake Champlain with its islands runs down the western edge. A scale of miles and a key to county towns and railroads are printed at the lower right, with the volume and plate numbers at the top of the sheet.

The map is a record of Vermont in the 1880s, a state of small counties and many towns, where the railroads followed the river valleys between the mountains.
