Langley Field appears as a prominent red-overprinted addition to this coastal Virginia landscape, highlighting its rapid emergence during the First World War. Situated between the York River and the James River, the region is a complex network of peninsulas including Goodwin Neck and Fish Neck, where maritime life centered on sites like Slates Wharf and Amory's Wharf. Further south, the legacy of the Civil War is marked by the Big Bethel Battlefield and the massive fortification at Fort Monroe on Old Point Comfort.
