Description
The fabled Big Thicket region of southeast Texas has long been the subject of debate and disagreement. Exactly where are the borders of this swampy, densely wooded region, and how does its folklore fit in with its biological character? Finding the Big Thicket: A Cartographic Approach is the first attempt to answer such questions by bringing together all of the available maps of the "Thicket". These maps converge on a single area, stretching west from the Louisiana border to a point just north of Houston. This coherence of maps proves conclusively that the Big Thicket does in fact exist and has a definite location. It also demonstrates the existence of parts of the Big Thicket to the west and to the east of the present Big Thicket National Biological Preserve which still call out for conservation.
