About this map

Watts Bar Reservoir is the defining presence of this 1940 landscape, with blue stipple indicating the impending transformation of the Tennessee River valley. The Tennessee Valley Authority records the river just as it prepares to submerge landmarks like Seven Islands and Wilson Island. On the higher ground of Ladd Ridge and Chestnut Ridge, the traditional settlement patterns of Roane and Loudon counties remain visible through a network of rural institutions.
