Sparta serves as the primary hub in this mid-century survey of the Blue Ridge foothills along the border of Virginia and North Carolina. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the New River and its tributary, the Little River, which carve through the high terrain of Doughton Mtn and Bald Knob. Rural life is centered around a network of family-named settlements and crossroads, including Edwards Crossroads and Blevins Crossroads, each connected by narrow winding roads like Hooker Road.
