Map of the United States. Relief shown by hachures. Prime meridians: Washington and Greenwich. Label on box lid depicts a seated female figure representing Columbia instructing a standing Native American figure from a large book she holds in her lap. The Native American wears the dress of a Plains Indian. The figures are shown on the edge of a cliff beneath an evergreen tree. The sun is setting in the background. Includes a map of the puzzle image.. Produced by the most successful game maker of the time, this jigsaw puzzle was another method of making geography fun and interesting. Designed as learning tools, the earliest puzzles, known as "dissected maps," did not contain randomly cut pieces, but rather followed country or state borders. Jigsaw puzzles with random pieces eventually replaced this practice. In this puzzle dating from 1887, a child would become familiar with United States geography. The puzzle is housed in a decorative box depicting symbols of America, including a seated

Distribution of the population of the United States : 1890. From Statistical atlas of the United States: based upon the results of the eleventh census / by Henry Gannett. Washington : Government Printing Office, 1898. "Plate 6.". America Transformed: Prepared by the Census Office using 1890 data, this map illustrates the distribution of population across the country. Darker colors represent denser populations. Based on maps like this, historian Frederick Jackson Turner declared that America no longer had a frontier, which he defined as "the meeting point between savagery and civilization." He believed that the violent conquest of the West shaped "American character," marked by rugged individualism, inventiveness, and intuitive mastery over the physical landscape. Many agreed with his "frontier thesis" and feared for rising generations who would no longer have the challenge of fighting native people and dominating a wild landscape.

This colorful presentation was overlaid on a standard base map that showed the extent of township surveys by the beginning of the 20th century.

America Transformed: After the Civil War, there was strong interest in constructing a new transcontinental route across the southwestern United States. In 1871, Congress chartered the Texas and Pacific Railway to build a railroad from eastern Texas to San Diego.
