On May 19, 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt announced the appointment of Arthur Morgan (1878-1975), a water-control engineer and college president from Ohio, as the chairman of the newly created Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA).

Purcell reassesses Morgan's long life and career and provides the first detailed account of his post-TVA activities and fascination with utopian writer Edward Bellamy.
