“The book commemorates one of
the greatest 20th Century social and
economic achievements-the light¬
ing of rural America.” said Harold
B. Smith, General Manager of Flint
Electric. “Our Board of Directors is
proud to be able to offer this
attractive book to local area

the rural electric program, the book
is also excellent resource material
for participants in Flint’s annual
Youth Tour essay and speaking
contest,” Smith continued.
the book clearly depicts the
drama of life in a rural America
resigned to the wretched darkness,
the agonizing drudgery, the
despair-then the stirrings, the
hopes and the cooperative commit¬
ment to get electric power to a
forgotten people. The story is told in
vivid detail and with great
sensitivity and is illustrated by a
remarkable collection of more than
700 of the finest photographs ever
taken of rural America and its
institutions.
