Review Quotes

"Rody Johnson's Chasing the Wind is first-rate journalism that makes significant contributions to
our understanding of the rise of wind energy production in both the U.S. and abroad. Wind power
will certainly play a major role in the energy mix of the future, especially if America is to move
beyond its current dependence on fossil fuels." --Donald Edward Davis, author of Where There
Are Mountains: An Environmental History of the Southern Appalachians
