Focusing on the Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC), Michael Bradshaw examines its federal-state partnership and the impact of local development districts on the region's transformation. The book highlights the ARC's evolution through six presidential administrations, particularly during the challenging Reagan years when it faced budget cuts yet survived due to support from governors and Congress. Bradshaw questions the effectiveness of the ARC in improving lives in Appalachia, making this a crucial read for those interested in effective government policy and regional development.
