"""Gail Radford has performed a great service here, deftly situating the first comprehensive history of this sprawling but underappreciated aspect of American governance within broader narratives of modern US history. And as she explores the histories of agencies like the Federal Land Bank and the Buffalo Sewer Authority, her prose absolutely crackles - this is a real page-turner!"" (Derek Hoff, Kansas State University)"""
