But in the 1930s much of rural Kentucky lay in darkness as soon as the sun set while the city dwellers had electric lights as power providers saw rural areas as unprofitable. This is the story of how the REA (Rural Electrification Administration) created electric cooperatives and brought light to rural Kentucky. A clean very presentable copy. Signed by Author(s).
