Origins of the TVA: The Muscle Shoals Controversy, 1920-1932

Professor Hubbard’s painstaking study, Origins of the TVA, shows the thorny course of events before TVA was born….Students of legislation and party politics will be grateful to Professor Hubbard for his careful and useful narrative of the long conflict over policy. His work is well done. He has examined the public records and some of the private papers….Professor Hubbard’s volume is a credit to its author and to the press which published it. –J. B. Shannon, The University of Nebraska, in Political Science Quarterly
