About this map

Clinch Mountain and Copper Ridge dominate this East Tennessee landscape, forcing a series of parallel valleys where communities like Pressmens Home and Alumwell took root. In 1935, the Tennessee Valley Authority and USGS recorded this transition between the steep ridges and the Holston River lowlands to the south. The map identifies the headquarters of the International Printing Pressmen and Assistants' Union at Pressmens Home, complete with its own Memorial Chapel and dedicated transmission line, representing a unique pocket of organized labor and institutional development in rural Hawkins County.
