About

Norfolk, Virginia, lies where the James and the Elizabeth rivers converge upon the lower shores of the Chesapeake Bay. “Original old Norfolk,” explains Carroll Walker, author of Norfolk: A Tricentennial Pictorial History, “was virtually an island, connected to the mainland by a narrow umbilical cord. All around were coves, creeks, and narrow inlets that poked their watery fingers deep into the irregular shoreline, creating small and large patches of marshland.”
