Harnessing the power of the Sierras
This book takes one through the amazing process of harnessing the power of Sierra mountain streams and converting it into electricity. The mountains were rugged and the inclines steep and yet the work went on. It is the story of a dream fulfilled and the hard work with tools of the turn of the century to bring electricity to Los Angeles and other areas. Having been a resident of Big Creek in 1956-1957, this book brings back a flood of wonderful memories of the sights and smells of the beautiful Sierras.
Excellent account of early Edison hydro projects
This book is an excellent companion book for "Iron Men and Copper Wires" also written by Bill Myers. Both are accounts of the Early Edison Company. It is a fascinating account of one of the greatest hydroelectric projects in the West. The foresight of the developers has allowed our Western electricity to be very renewable and sustainable whereas these projects would be blocked by environmentalist protest today.
Photos and documentation are excellent in this first-person account.
