This book uncovers the early twentieth-century history rich with precedents for the New Deal in forest, park, and agricultural policy. Sara M. Gregg explores the redevelopment of the Appalachian Mountains from the 1910's through the 1930's, finding in this region a changing paradigm of land use planning that laid the groundwork for the national New Deal. Through an intensive analysis of federal planning in Virginia and Vermont, Gregg contextualizes the expansion of the federal government through land use planning and highlights the deep intellectual roots of federal conservation policy.Yale agrarian studies.Regional planningAppalachian RegionHistory20th centuryNew Deal, 1933-1939Appalachian RegionEconomic conditions20th centuryRegional planningHistoryNew Deal, 1933-1939.307.12097409043Gregg Sara M1804065MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910954786303321Managing the mountains4351928UNINA
