Shenandoah Valley

The Shenandoah Valley region of western Virginia, from Winchester to
Roanoke, Virginia, is bounded by the Blue Ridge mountains to the East and
the Allegheny mountains to the West. Harrisonburg, Staunton, Front Royal and
Lexington are among the many small cities in the Valley. The region also
includes the eastern panhandle of West Virginia and the cities of
Martinsburg and Harpers Ferry.

Though the Shenandoah Valley is commonly said to reach as far as Roanoke, it
and Lexington are not in the Shenandoah River basin which reaches somewhat
past Staunton. The Shenandoah Valley is a productive agricultural region
first settled by German and Scotch-Irish emigrants from Pennsylvania, in
contrast to the largely English settlement of the Virginia tidewater and
piedmont regions.

The Shenandoah Valley was a major seat of battle in the American Civil War.
