Inhaltsangabe

Putting "Loafing Streams" to Work is the story of life in the towns and on the jobs. It is the story of difficult and dangerous work, of community and company cooperation, and of a human effort on a scale that is remarkable even today. It is also an account of the effect projects of this size had on the surrounding communities and on the people who did not actually work on the dams. This story will help us better understand the impact of Alabama Power Company's early activities on the lives of Alabamians, and it tells how citizens of the state responded to the forces of industrialization.
