In this vast compendium, the author gives a thorough overview of many aspects of the gas, electric, and steam-heat industries in New York City between 1910 and 1913. This book bridges the gap between the rise of these industries to the end of the 19th century and their more recent developments, thus providing a foundation for further study and a resource for comparing trends. The comprehensive data the author presents on the increasing consumption of gas and electricity, the evolution of fuel usage, the costs and efficiency of production, and other topics supply ample insight into the history of utilities in this period.
