The New York City Blackout of 1977

The History Guy remembers the New York City Blackout of 1977 and four lightning bolts that changed America’s largest city.

The History Guy uses images that are in the Public Domain. As photographs of actual events are often not available, I will sometimes use photographs of similar events or objects for illustration.
