The town of Alba serves as the focal point of this late-1950s study of East Texas, where the landscape is marked by the industrial legacy of lignite and oil. Located at the intersection of several county lines, the area shows clear evidence of its extractive past with a prominent Old Mining Area to the south and an Old Railroad Grade cutting across the terrain toward Ginger. These corridors once moved resources across the wooded hills of the Sabine River basin.
