From Native American legends to resort era beginnings, from direct involvement by elite families of West Georgia to Franklin Delano Roosevelts forty-one visits to his adopted state, and from the amazing polio generation and one of mankinds most significant accomplishments to near closure, rebirth, and a myriad of what-might-have-beens. This is the complete story of Warm Springs, from pioneer beginnings and regional development to state and federal political intrigue, romantic suspicions and questionable ethics, social causes and lasting initiatives, civil and disability rights, medical origins, and heartwarming success stories. While the story of one of mankinds greatest achievements, its still a legacy that has never been capitalized on to its fullest extent.
