Let There Be Light: The Story of Rural Electrification in Kentucky

by David B. Dick

Let There Be Light is the story of the humble beginnings, the early struggles, and the ultimate triumph of the electric cooperative idea in Kentucky. Much of the story is told by the individuals who lived it–men and women who recall the years of work to create the electric companies, and today’s cooperative leaders who carry on a tradition that has changed the landscape of the Commonwealth ending the drudgery of former days.
