Summary |
Gaslights to Gigawatts is a human history that tells the story of the BC Hydro and its predecessors - the British Columbia Electric Co. and the British Columbia Power Commission - through the memories and memoirs of the people who lived it. That history begins in the 1860s when gas lamps first illuminated the streets of Victoria, and runs until the present era of billion-watt (gigawatt) power projects. With photographs. |
