Moondoggle

Franklin Roosevelt and the Fight for Tidal-Electric Power at Passamaquoddy Bay

By Mark C. Borton

Publisher: Down East Books

Imprint: Down East Books

Moondoggle is a dramatic tale about the appeal of tidal power, the difficulties in realizing its potential, and the engineers and three U.S. Presidents (Roosevelt, Truman, and Kennedy) who tried to make clean and renewable tidal power a reality. Now on the 100th anniversary of the “Passamaquoddy Project’s” conception (1920-2020), Moondoggle—the only book on the project—explores what almost was, and what could be.
