Describes the evolution of one of America's first environmental movements---the antismoke crusade of the early 1900s; how early reformers connected beauty, health and cleanliness with morality and demanded government assistance in maintaining all four and forced environmental issues onto municipal agendas; how governments then brought in engineers who argued for smoke abatement in coal-dependent cities for economic rather than aesthetic reasons
