Description

Cover story, "Professor collects memoirs of TVA pioneers"

The growth and development of the Tennessee Valley Authority, labeled by some historians as one of the most important economic events affecting the South since the Civil War, has been the subject of a massive five-year study of the Memphis State Oral History Research Office. This issue features an in-depth interview with the project director, Dr. Charles W. Crawford, associate professor of history. Pictured here is the first dam built by TVA, Norris Dam, located on the Clinch River in East Tennessee.

Also featured, "Lending a helping hand"

Editor's Note: This is the first of a series of articles designed to explain how you can lend a helping hand to the supportive programs of the Development Office, and what, in turn, these programs do for Memphis State University.
