Pittsburg and the surrounding southern Illinois coal country are mapped here during a period of modern rural development. The landscape is defined by a dense network of country roads such as New Ohio Coal Rd and Streetcar Rd, which speak to the industrial and transit history of the region. The map captures several small, distinct communities including Corinth, Paulton, and Attila, each connected by a system of creeks and drainages like Crab Orchard Cr and Lake Cr.
