Description: On Their Own Power - The Story of Michigan's Electric Co-Ops. by the Michigan Electric Cooperative Association, Okemos, Michigan. Written by Raymond G. Kuhl. 192 pages. 7 by 10 inches, paperback. "On Their Own Power is a probing look into the relentless quest of thousands of people in rural Michigan who were determined to get electricity to their farms and homes in the 1930s even if they had to do it themselves. They did, on their own power. "Readers will gain insight into what was one of the most traumatic struggles in the days of the Great Depression. The farmers knew nothing about running a utility, but their partner in Washington had some innovative ideas - and that partnership clicked. The result was widespread cooperative rural electrification." - excerpts off the back cover. Thank you!
