Marconi: Father of Wireless, Grandfather of Radio, Great-Grandfather of the Cell Phone, The Story of the Race to Control Long-Distance Wireless Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I hadn't expected to be interested in a biography of an inventor, but I like biographies and so I bought it. Trowbridge spins an exciting yarn with suspense in every chapter. From Marconi's challenges as a teenage inventor sneered at by older men who felt they had THE answer to testing new inventions in front of kings and emperors who could make or break his future, the story is riveting. Weather, beautiful women, angry governments and investors furious at Marconi's use of company profits for more experiments provide suspense enough to keep the reader sitting on the edge of his or her seat.
