Summary
Details

""The Interstate Commerce Commission: Its History, Activities and Organization"" provides a comprehensive and detailed examination of one of the most significant regulatory bodies in United States history. Written during a pivotal era for federal oversight, this work traces the evolution of the commission from its establishment under the Act to Regulate Commerce in 1887 through its expansion in the early 20th century. The text offers an in-depth analysis of the agency's administrative structure, its evolving legal mandates, and its critical function in supervising the nation's vital transportation networks.

The study explores the legislative milestones that defined the commission's authority and its role in mediating the relationship between private industry and the public interest. By detailing the internal organization and the specific activities of the various divisions within the commission, the work serves as a foundational resource for understanding the development of modern administrative law and public policy. This volume is an essential historical reference for students and scholars of economic history, political science, and the history of American infrastructure, illustrating the complex growth of the regulatory state.
