| Publisher Description: Travel back in time and witness Roanoke Valley's humble beginnings and how it has grown into the region it is today. Nestled in the shadows of the Blue Ridge, the Roanoke Valley has developed as the capital region for western Virginia. After a century of growth fueled by transportation, education, and healthcare, the region has undergone significant visible change. While some of the valley's landmarks remain, many have been replaced or dramatically altered. |
