The Brazos River creates a meandering border between Washington, Waller, and Austin Counties in this early 1960s study of rural southeast Texas. The landscape is defined by the heavy industrial footprint of the Raccoon Bend Oil Field in the southeast, where a dense network of oil wells and pipelines contrasts with the scattered agricultural settlements to the north. These small communities, including Sauney Stand, Buckhorn, and Cochran, are characterized by their local institutions, such as Sauney Chapel, Union Center Sch, and Cochran Sch.
