Beagle, Oregon an unknown casualty of war : Camp White and the destruction of a farming community during the Second World WarShelnutt, Kay 30 January 2007 (has links)
This project examines the landscape of the farming community of Beagle, Oregon
prior to and during the Second World War and the effect on it due to
the construction of Camp White, a World War II training facility. The Beagle
landscape is examined through the prism of current theory that suggests that
landscapes are not discrete units of analysis but are, instead, symbiotic relationships
between land and people. Utilizing archives, contemporary newspaper accounts,
photographs, oral histories, and archaeological investigation, the history of the
construction of Beagle landscape, the effects of the construction of Camp White, the
subsequent removal of Beagle residents, and postwar renewal are examined. The
project concludes that the Beagle landscape was, and is, a holistic entity that, though
dramatically changed in 1942, continues to exist and inform the lives of surviving
original residents as well as the history of the Beagle area. / Graduation date: 2007
