Book excerpt: Nickajack Dam was built by TVA in the mid-1960's at Tennessee River mile 424.7 to replace the old and leaking Hales Bar Dam located 6.4 miles upstream. The Nickajack site is located in Marion County, Tennessee, 18 air miles west of Chattanooga and about 2 miles northwest of the junction of the Alabama-Georgia-Tennessee State lines. Historically, the ancient Indian town of Nickajack was located at Shellmound, about a mile and a half upstream from the dam on the left bank of the reservoir. Nickajack was inhabited by the Cherokees as early as 1730. In 1784 the warlike Chief Dragging Canoe, who had earlier broken with the Cherokees, launched his marauding Chickamaugas from the town and used the nearby Nickajack Cave as a hideout. Later, during the Civil War, saltpeter was mined in the cave for Confederate gunpowder.

Download or read book The Greater Good written by Laura Beth Daws and published by University Alabama Press. This book was released on 2019-02-12 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines the role of press coverage in promoting the mission of the TVA, facilitating family relocation, and formulating the historical legacy of the New Deal For poverty-stricken families in the Tennessee River Valley during the Great Depression, news of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal plans to create the Tennessee Valley Authority—bringing the promise of jobs, soil conservation, and electricity—offered hope for a better life. The TVA dams would flood a considerable amount of land on the riverbanks, however, forcing many families to relocate. In exchange for this sacrifice for the “greater good,” these families were promised “fair market value” for their land. As the first geographic location to benefit from the electricity provided by TVA, the people of North Alabama had much to gain, but also much to lose. In The Greater Good: Media, Family Removal, and TVA Dam Construction in North Alabama Laura Beth Daws and Susan L. Brinson describe the region’s preexisting conditions, analyze the effects of relocation, and argue that local newspapers had a significant impact in promoting the TVA’s agenda. The authors contend that it was principally through newspapers that local residents learned about the TVA and the process and reasons for relocation. Newspapers of the day encouraged regional cooperation by creating an overwhelmingly positive image of the TVA, emphasizing its economic benefits and disregarding many of the details of removal. Using mostly primary research, the volume addresses two key questions: What happened to relocated families after they sacrificed their homes, lifestyles, and communities in the name of progress? And what role did mediated communication play in both the TVA’s family relocation process and the greater movement for the public to accept the TVA’s presence in their lives? The Greater Good offers a unique window into the larger impact of the New Deal in the South. Until now, most research on the TVA was focused on organizational development rather than on families, with little attention paid to the role of the media in garnering acceptance of a government-enforced relocation.
