"This is precisely the kind of study needed at this moment. We have had enough about origins and ideology. What's needed is something that tells us how things work. [Fleming's book] does that for the rural electric system in the province of Ontario. The text is well written, carefully organized, and solidly documented. The author keeps his focus firmly on the subject throughout and does not get drawn into tangential concerns ... a model monographic work." Vivian Nelles, Department of History, York University.
