The book's 23 sections offer a progressive history of the building of Hoover Dam from its birth in Congress in the '20s to its dedication in 1935. In between was costly preparatory work and important political developments. The text, supplemented by about 200 photos, tells about the engineers, the surveyors, and the large number of risk-taking laborers who enacted the treacherous work.
