This book tells the story of the Rural Electrification Administration (REA) in the United States, an agency that was created in 1935 to bring electricity to rural areas. The book explores the challenges and triumphs of bringing electricity to American farms, a story that resonates with the broader history of rural development and technological change in the United States. The author meticulously examines the complex process of creating and operating rural electric cooperatives, highlighting the role of government initiatives and the importance of local communities in overcoming obstacles. The book illuminates the impact of REA on the lives of rural Americans, from the transformative experience of having electricity for the first time, to the changes in daily routines and economic opportunities. The story of the REA is a testament to the power of collaboration, perseverance, and the ongoing pursuit of progress, providing a valuable insight into the social and economic forces that shaped rural America.
