Perhaps the best thing about writing a book about history is how much time you get to spend with your nose buried in old, weird books, reading and smelling them. Through Amazon, Powell’s, and Bolerium Books, I realized that I’d started to amass a nice collection of resources that you might want to take see.
So, I’ve added a Reading List page, which I’m hoping will evolve into a real bibliography for American green technology history, so that other researchers can find, use, and enjoy some of these strains in history.
Most of the books listed here are considered important, but I’ve also peppered in some of the strange finds I’ve made, and will continue to do so. Errata are the spice of life, so they say.
I also should thank Peter Shulman at Case Western Reserve University and Thomas Andrews, Pamela Laird, and Myra Rich at the University of Colorado-Denver. Their kind assistance has helped immeasurably.
If you have any suggestions for resources to add, send them my way. For more complete lists on oil and solar power, you might want to check out the bibliography at H-Net, Humanities and Social Sciences Online.
