About this map

The La Crosse River valley and its surrounding ridge lands define this mid-century portrait of western Wisconsin. Central to the region, Sparta is shown as a thriving hub of transportation and military activity, bordered by the Camp McCoy Military Reservation and served by the Chicago and North Western Railway. The rural landscape is notably dense with small community centers, evidenced by an exceptional concentration of country schoolhouses like West Beaver Sch, Elm Grove Sch, and White Sch.
