Labeled as a study of forest types, this picture turns the Natchez Trace Parkway's surroundings into a guide to the trees that line the route. The parkway runs about 444 miles from Natchez, Mississippi, to Nashville, Tennessee, passing through bottomland hardwoods, oak and hickory uplands, and stands of pine, so one road crosses several distinct woodland communities. The National Park Service, which has managed the parkway since the 1930s and completed it in stages over many decades, produced material like this to help travelers recognize what they are passing. Changes in the forest reflect shifts in soil, moisture, and elevation along the old path.
