Texas Takes Shape: A History in Maps from the General Land Office Books-Children Including materials from ruralby Mark Lambert, James Harkins, Brian A. Stauffer and Patrick Walsh The Texas General Land Offices map collection contains over 45,000 maps, some dating from the sixteenth century, making it one of the most important cartographic archives in Texas.
