Late in Arriving, How Electricity Changed Rural New Hampshire Life
Late in Arriving, How Electricity Changed Rural New Hampshire Life
Former Agriculture Commissioner Steve Taylor recounts the advent of electricity in NH and how it transformed the state. He explains how the rural areas were last to get electrified. It took the coming of the New Deal's Rural Electrification Administration and a determined band of farmers to overcome opposition from the established private utilities to create the New Hampshire Electric Cooperative in 1939.
