The National Highway Association (NHA) was established in 1911 to promote the development of an improved national highway network in the United States. Under the motto “Good roads everywhere!” (Good Roads Everywhere), the NHA advocated for the construction and permanent maintenance by the federal government of a system of 50,000 miles (about 80,500 kilometers) of highways.

This system would be made up of six main national highways, 13 trunk national highways, and 40 connecting highways. The link roads, the NHA explained, would connect "the main network and trunk lines" and stretch "in all directions until the country as a whole is covered with almost a web of roads."

The map was issued jointly by the National Highway Association and the Automobile Club. Cartography by John C. Mulford and CC fauncia lithographed and printed by A. Hoen & Company, Baltimore. Includes numerous blocks of text for extensive information on the history of highway construction, information on the four-part highway system, and organizational information on the National Highway Association, including members of various councils. It shows the boundaries of states, cities, towns, and many Indian reservations in the United States in yellow.
