The northern Gulf Coast waterfront spans from the marshes of Lake Pontchartrain across the Mississippi Sound to the vital port of Mobile. This mid-century survey captures the region's intense maritime and military character, anchored by Keesler Air Force Base in Biloxi and Brookley Air Force Base on the western shore of Mobile Bay. The landscape is defined by the great river systems of the Pearl River, the Pascagoula River, and the Mobile River, which supported the timber and industrial economies of settlements like Bogalusa and Moss Point.
