Paperback. Condition: Very Good. First Edition; First Printing. The 1: 24,000-scale geologic map of the Flowery Peak quadrangle is an extension of mapping published recently by the Nevada Bureau of Mines and Geology in the adjacent Virginia City quadrangle. The Flowery Peak quadrangle, southeast of Reno and east of Virginia City, includes part of the Comstock mining district, an important historic source of precious metals. More than 60 lithologic units were mapped in the Flowery Peak quadrangle. Twenty-six units are in the three major mid-Miocene intermediate magmatic groups defined in the Virginia City quadrangle. Extensive Quaternary sedimentary deposits include eighteen units exposed in the Carson River Plains in the southeast part of the Flowery Peak quadrangle. Minor amounts of mid-Miocene sedimentary rocks, early Miocene and Oligocene ash-flow tuffs, late Miocene basalt, and Quaternary rhyolitic rocks are present. Mesozoic metasedimentary and granitic rocks occur as well. Mapping of hydrothermal veins and associated alteration in the Flowery Peak quadrangle extends similar mapping in the Virginia City quadrangle. Twelve new 40Ar/39Ar ages determined for igneous rocks in the Flowery Peak quadrangle, along with chemical and mineralogic data, are reported in text that accompanies the map along with full unit descriptions. This map was prepared as part of the STATEMAP component of the National Cooperative Geologic Mapping Program in cooperation with the U. S. Geological Survey.

The NV Department of Highways was founded in 1917 with the mission "to surface what were often rutted dirt paths forged by pioneers." Other historical highlights of the Department include: ⢠January 1919. The Department's 1st major construction project was to build a trestle bridge over the Humboldt River in Pershing County at a cost of $10,953. Also in 1919, a $72,000 project kicked off to build a concrete roadway from Reno to ~ 6 miles south. ⢠in the mid 1920s, the states 45 mph speed limit was rescinded, and replaced with speed guidelines of limiting vehicle speeds to that of "sane and safe driving." ⢠1923. A gasoline tax was instituted, providing another vital source of funding for transportation projects. ⢠1929. the last NV link of U. S. Highway 91 near Apex was oiled, providing a smooth roadway surface from California across Nevada between California and Arizona. In later years, it would pave the way for Nevada's busiest interstate, I-15, which now traverses alongside the iconic Las Vegas Strip.

Rand McNally & Company, still a major name in map publishing to this day, began as a small print shop opened in Chicago in 1856 by William H. Rand. The shop originally printed guidebooks and directories. In 1858, Rand hired Andrew McNally who was later to become a partner. Within the next few years, the shop got into the railroad business by starting to print railway tickets and schedules, a key step in the development of the company. The ticket printing led to the publishing of railway guides, and by 1872 Rand McNally and Company had the capacity to publish maps. This map of Nevada came from Rand McNallys Commercial Atlas, sixty-first Edition dated 1930. A highly successful run of atlases that lasted over a decade. These maps were primarily used by business, because of their accurate listing of railroads in operation as well as tables of statistical information. This map is unique in several ways, their large format makes an impressive display, and offers additional room where many small towns and extra details are included. Additionally a list of every railroad operating in the state in 1930 is included. All railroad routes are shown on the map. This map includes all cities and towns, lakes, rivers, and bodies of water. All topographical features are also included as well as political features such as counties and Native American Indian reservations. This map measures 19 inches by 26 inches.

The overall piece, with linen border, measures 26" x 38". The map is central, surrounded by border advertisements of local establishments, most of which are now gone. The map was drawn by H. P. Davis, the author of "Gold Rush Days in Nevada City". In addition to a scale map of city streets, Davis has added small drawings and text regarding significant historical facts. Nevada City is the County Seat of Nevada County, California, in the gold country of the Sierra foothills. Running through the center of town is Deer Creek, the site of the earliest gold finds. The city was formally founded in March 1850, and named "Nevada", but had to add the word "City" when Nevada became a State. The richest deep quartz-gold mines in California are found in this area, principally in adjoining Grass Valley. Minor restoration and linen mounting by Innis Archives. Near Fine overall.
