About this map

Newtonia and the surrounding southwestern Missouri landscape are defined by a complex network of zinc and lead mining, rural education, and the burgeoning presence of World War II military activity. The southwestern portion of the map is dominated by the Camp Crowder Military Reservation, a site that fundamentally altered the local geography during the early 1940s. Beyond the military boundary, the economy remains rooted in the earth, evidenced by the Dungy Mine near Stark City and the Polish Queen Mine further east.
