The authors have built well the full story of Tesla. They trace his early beginnings in Yugoslavia, his education, and his early flashes of inventive insight in his first employment in Europe. On his coming to America, Tesla soon was employed by Edison and then broke with that other inventor--and began the great "Battle of Currents" which was won so convincingly for the Tesla alternating current, almost without exception used today. The Tesla story is one of the most interesting biographies ever told.
