If like you such books you will really enjoy Loafing Streams. It is a history of the beginnings of APCO including the frist four lakes. The section on Martin is very good. Being the third dam, they had learned a few lessons on the first two and Martin became a real showcase of engineering, perseverance, cooperation and even early social engineering. It was the first instance of blacks and whites working side by side for the same wages, with the same benifits in the state of Alabama. APCO was also the first to offer health care to employees, although that was more a necesasity than a luxury due to the isolation of the site. The innovative methods of mesquita control was also very interesting. Malaria was a major concern at the time. I think you will enjoy it. Maybe when you get your copy you can clear up the 'stump'issue for us. It has been years since I read the book, but that one picture really sticks out in my mind.
