Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electricity Comes to Rural America: June, 1950 Before 1935 not many people were greatly concerned whether rural people ever got electricity or not. And the old muscle method or gas-engine power seemed the only way to accomplish barnyard tasks. As for the farm wife - well, she just couldn't be expected to have all the com forts her sister in town had. If food spoiled for lack of refrigeration, if Dad's shirts got scorched with an iron heated too long on the wood range, that was bad luck. People in small villages, near the farms service station operators, proprietors of country stores, church and school leaders - some of them had electricity, here and there, but like the farmers around them, they too depended mainly on hand power and kerosene lamps.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most Americans consider electricity essential to their lives, but the historic disparity of its distribution and use challenges notions of a democratic lifestyle, economy, and culture. By the beginning of the twentieth century, substations, wires, towers, and poles had followed migrants westward as the industrial era?s most prominent symbols of progress and power. When private companies controlled power production, electrical transmission, and distribution without regulation, they argued that it was not ?economically feasible? for many ethnic and rural communities to access ?the grid.? Yet, government agents continued to advocate electrical living through federal programs that reached into and across farming communities and American Indian reservations to homogenize and assimilate them through urban technologies. In the end, however, rural electrification was a locally directed process, subject to local and regional issues, concerns, and parameters. ø Electrifying the Rural American West provides a social and cultural history of rural electrification in the West. Using three case studies in Arizona, Leah S. Glaser details how, when examined from the local level, the process of electrification illustrates the impact of technology on places, economies, and lifestyles in the diverse communities and landscapes of the American West. As today?s policy-makers advocate building more power lines as a tool to bring democracy to faraway places and ?smart grids? to deliver renewable energy, they would do well to review the historical relationship of Americans with electronic power production, distribution, and regulation.
