According to author Joe Holley, the story of the Texas Electric Cooperatives, a collective of some 76 member-owned electric providers throughout the state, is a story of neighborliness and community, grit and determination, and persuasion and political savvy. It\u2019s the story of a grassroots movement that not only energized rural Texas but also showed residents the power they have when they band together to find strength in unity.\nOpening with the coming of electricity to Texas\u2019 major cities at the turn of the twentieth century, Power: How the Electric Co-op Movement Energized the Lone Star State describes the dramatic differences between urban and rural life. Though the major cities of Texas were marvels of nighttime brilliance, the countryside remained as dark as it had been for centuries\n\nPower\nHow the Electric Co-op Movement Energized the Lone Star State\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail tracked ;
