Sebastian and Crawford Counties are among Arkansas's most historic areas
with their location on what was once the edge of the frontier. In this
book, the authors capture the transition of both the large and the small
communities from the 1800s into the middle of the 20th century through
historic postcards. With carefully researched interpretation of the
images, the book offers a fascinating walk through time along the
streets of bustling Fort Smith and Van Buren, tiny hamlets, and even a
trip up historic Highway 71 to Mount Gaylor.
