Synopsis

Mr. Chartier has written yet another historical novel. His last work was a historical novel set in Europe in the late nineteenth century. This new one takes place a century later and has a different venue; the United States of America. Many people base their opinions about electric utilities on what they read in the newspapers or hear on the television news. Anyone in the utility business will tell you that it isn't anything like that at all. This is an insider tell-all and it starts with the childhood of a bright kid in a lower middle-class neighborhood. After putting himself through college, he jumps in with both feet to tackle problems relating to the increasing size and power ratings of equipment need to serve the load growth in the late twentieth century. As an example, this story will tell you what really brought on the last major northeast blackout. Buckle up, it is a fast-paced ride.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

The author worked hard in college and was tapped for the Tau Beta Pi engineering scholastic honor society. He worked for 33 years as an engineer writing specifications and test procedures for large electric power equipment. He was selected by his company to represent that company on national standards-making bodies and, in the process, wrote some peer-reviewed papers that were published in the Transactions of this organization. He even contributed materials to two engineering reference books. After retirement, he was an Adjunct Professor at a technical college for several years and he began doing engineering consulting. During that time, he discovered that he had a flare for spinning a yarn so he started writing historical novels.
