In 60-Across clue, "Domesticated" may have been meant instead of "Domestic"; the Rouen duck, as its name suggests, originated in France.
Clue for 57-Down is correct but tricky — Nero didn't play the violin, which hadn't been invented yet, but was a fiddler in the sense of being a swindler and was fairly famous for it.

Clue for 34-Down, assuming New Zealand is what was meant, is incorrect—it's not an island but composed of two large islands and many smaller ones, Stewart Island being the largest in area, and Waiheke having the largest population. Clue for 50-Down seems incorrect—Alaska's area is 663,268 sq. mi. and probably hasn't changed since 1979.

Clues for 24-Across, 4-Down, and 30-Down were illegible in the original; substituted in other clues, which probably aren't what the constructor originally wrote.
In 52-Down clue, although the Tennessee Valley may be (largely) in Tennessee, Sen. George W. Norris, who created the TVA, was a senator from Nebraska.
