1954 Map of Balkan

About this map

The Cumberland River carves a deep path through the coal-rich mountains of Bell County in this mid-century study. The landscape is defined by the massive ridge of Pine Mountain and the winding course of Straight Creek, which together dictate the placement of transportation and settlement. The Louisville and Nashville railroad follows the river's edge, serving mining communities and rail stops like Hulen and Kettle Island.
