BOOK: Country Power

 Country Power ~ The Electrical Revolution in Rural Alberta recounts the history of the people and events that made possible the implementation of rural power in our province. The original book, released in 1993, shares the story of the distribution power cooperative movement in Alberta from its inception in the late 1940s to the early 1990s.

The 2013 reprint is a new smaller format (5.5 x 8.5) but it includes all the original content, pictures, and historical information. The book is a tribute to the passionate men and women who brought a change to their rural livelihood by bringing electrification to the farmhouse and farmyard. Reprint editions keep the grassroots story alive.
