About this map

The Tennessee River winds through a landscape of ridges and river bends in this mid-1930s survey, capturing the region just before significant hydro-electric development altered the waterway. The area is defined by the parallel elevations of Copper Ridge and Beaver Ridge, which channel the Beaver Creek and structure the settlement patterns of towns like Concord and Friendsville. The Southern Ry and L & N RR provide the industrial backbone, connecting riverfront landings with inland hubs like Farragut and Bearden.
