The James River carves through this central Virginia landscape, creating a natural border for Tuckahoe Island and Little River Island between the banks of Goochland and Powhatan counties. In the early 1940s, the region was characterized by small riverside settlements and industry, notably the Granite Quarries near Boscobel. Transport and commerce follow the water and rail lines, with the Chesapeake and Ohio tracking the northern bank through Sabot and Vinita, while the Southern railway serves the village of Midlothian to the south.
