A series of reports on problems being studied by participants in the Joint Investigations to plan for the successful development and settlement of the Columbia Basin irrigation project.
In the capable hands of Paul Pitzer, the fight for Grand Coulee Dam and the story of its construction is a vital, animated saga of people striving for dazzling goals and then working to build something spectacular. These visionaries accomplished their objective against the backdrop of the worst economic depression in the nation's history. The dam and the extensive irrigation network it supports stand today as a monument to their dreams and labors.
Includes report of Chief Engineer of Reclamation Service to Commissioner of Reclamation on proposed Columbia River basin project, Jan. 7, 1932 (p. 69-143).
