About the Book

"Fueling Change tells the story of energy and people through time. This impressive collection of insights pulls together documents, artifacts and bountiful visuals to provide snapshots of how one city, Kansas City, has experienced transitions and variations in its energy supply. Dell's hard work in Fueling Change offers a promising example that others might consult to tell a city's story through the energy that makes it go." -Brian C. Black, Ph.D., Head, Division of Arts and Humanities Distinguished Professor of History and Environmental Studies Editor, Energy and Society book series with WVUP Penn State, Altoona, Pennsylvania "How did I teach social studies for 28 years and not know this information?" -high school social studies teacher "What could be timelier than a new book about how fuel and energy have and do continue to shape our lives and our planet to this very minute?"-Tom Marsh, author "Once I read Part 4, I changed the way I move in the world." -Kay Laurent, Overland Park, Kansas "Fueling Change is an encyclopedia of facts and history that reads like a good novel." -Bob Painter, energy expert, Kansas City, Missouri"Fueling Change is a clarion call to urgent change. It also presents the challenge in a simple call to action by laying out a 10-year plan to reduce gasoline usage (i.e., carbon emissions). Rather than being overwhelmed by pending environmental disasters, this plan provides a concrete, hope-filled way to prevent them. Fueling Change provides a look backward and a map forward. I highly recommend it." -Charlotte Shelton, Ph.D. Executive Associate Professor & Senior Scholar Helzberg School of Management Rockhurst University, Kansas City, Missouri"The illustrations and data charts kept me reading what is very interesting history. Thank you!" -Fran Hess, Leawood, Kansas"I found the social and economic forces (such as food in lowenergy systems, or slavery as an energy source) being directly connected with our energy choices- from the Osage and early settlers to contemporary citizens-very interesting and informative." -Bob Berkebile, Fellow, American Institute of Architects Principal Emeritus, Kansas City, Missouri
