By Walter L. Creese

Book Overview

Winner of the Lewis Mumford Prize (Society for American City and Regional Planning History) and Best Book Award (Southeast Society for Architectural Historians).

At its outset, the Tennessee Valley Authority was a comprehensive public planning project for the economic and social revitalization of a major American region, undertaken in a time of depression and major technological advance. Traditionally, the TVA has been viewed as a unique response to special circumstances, largely lacking in historical precedents.
