About this map

Industrial development and coal mining dominate the landscape of Walker and Jefferson counties during the mid-1930s. The serpentine path of the Locust Fork and Mulberry Fork of the Black Warrior River dictates the region's transport network, where several river crossings such as Copeland Ferry, Alwood Ferry, and Taylor Ferry remain vital for local transit before the era of widespread bridges.
