Nancy’s Reviews > Electric City: The Lost History of Ford and Edison’s American Utopia > Status Update

I read this book in two days. It was excellent. Easy read and really good historical insight into the relationship that Henry Ford had with Thomas Edison. It also highlighted his challenges in working within our political system at that time but then also battling Wall Street. He had an idealistic vision of what Farming life and life could be like in the United States in the early 1900s. Both he and Thomas Edison outlined a utopia and muscle Shoals, Alabama that never took off. It would’ve been powered by building dams for natural energy just an amazing piece of history.
