"Looking Squarely at the Water Power Problem" examines the legal and practical aspects of water power development in the early 20th century. Authored by Henry Joshua Pierce, with reference to United States laws from 1914, this work delves into the challenges and opportunities surrounding the utilization of water resources for power generation. It offers insights into the regulatory environment and engineering considerations of the time, making it a valuable resource for understanding the historical context of hydroelectric power and water management. The book provides a snapshot of the early debates and legislative efforts related to harnessing water power, relevant to legal scholars, historians of technology, and anyone interested in the evolution of energy policy.
