From the rear cover
The beauty of this book is that its author, Louise Young, has given us a graphic, saddening description of what happens when the so-called necessities of a giant electric power company conflict with the desires of countrymen and their community. As one would expect in this era of surging 'progress, ' the company wins and the people lose. However, Louise Young was there, and her jarring account of the classical conflict that arises when government and industry give greater importance to 'progress' than to the living values of the people is the story of Power Over People.
