Based on the memoirs of Aelred J. Gray, former chief planner, this book reviews how the Tennessee Valley Agency (TVA) - a world-renowned model for regional planning and development - functioned and changed through the decades. It shows how the TVA pioneered land-use planning to create state parks alongside the Tennessee river's hydro-electric power stations and dams, how it developed model towns, influenced city planning and introduced the landmark Flood Damage Prevention program.
Traditionally, the TVA has been viewed as a unique response to special circumstances, largely lacking in historical precedents. Countering this assumption, Creese reveals the varied political, social, architectural, and technical currents that directly shaped the TVA vision, which he calls the largest, most optimistic, most skillful, planning project ever undertaken.
