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.
