Human history has seen many surprising and profound turning points. Our distant ancestors discovered fire and invented tools. They developed languages and writing. They built shelters, temples, and schools; sometimes warred against each other; and organized complex systems of governance, social organization, and production. Lastly, the ways that humans learned to use raw materials to create activity and resources set the stage for the most compelling and life-altering phase of the modern era, the Industrial Revolution.

Into this exciting historical period, two remarkable men were born. Tied by birth to different continents but connected by similar interests, each indelibly marked their generation and those that followed with their genius and foresight. This audiobook covers the war of currents and the individual lives of Tesla and Edison.

Listen to this audiobook now to learn more about the lives of Tesla and Edison!

The boom is a fair assessment of both Edison and Tesla. Good information. Tesla has always been my favorite so I was satisfied I learned to things that opened up more study. As with all books from Captivating Guide Editors, excellent references material.

Kept my attention the whole way through.

Edison was commercially well known for his work with the electric light bulb and the phonograph. Tesla was well known in his time but his developments are not so commercially evident and his name is not as well-known as Edison. Tesla's greatest achievement was winning a fierce battle with Edison over the commercialization of large-scale Alternating Current power generation and use when Edison championed Direct Current.

Surprisingly great

Very much enjoyed the human side of a very technical tale. Thought it was written in a very engaging way. Would especially recommend for those who have studied electricity in school, but certainly, electrical knowledge is not required.

Written in an informal style!!!

I wish there were more quotes from the Great Tesla within this volume. As it stands the book Is informative and interesting. I would indeed recommend it.

I love historical accounts. This was well written and highly entertaining. The reader, however mispronounced so many words, I had to rewind to follow the thread.

I was going to provide examples, but there were too many.

I have listened to over 500 audio books and most include one or two mispronunciations (always account for cultural and dialect differences) but this was distracting.

Mispronunciations were a considerable distraction

But the basics are here.....This is not your book if you're doing research since it only gives highlights in the lives of Tesla and Edison. Still, it's factual a d brief.

A fun introduction to world-changing men

This book compares the background and achievements of two very different people who both had a long-term impact on the way we live. Edison was Mr. Fixit, improve it and sell it. Tesla had a genius level IQ, eidetic memory and engineering education who was responsible for some fundamental developments in the use of electricity. They were both perpetual inventors and improvers, sometimes successful but frequently unsuccessful. At one time they worked together but with such different personalities they soon fell out and split.

it's short, had info I didn't know about Tesla's documented accomplishments, An interesting book that raises many historical points of which I was totally unaware.

Enjoyed the book very much

The story seems to repeat itself several times over it would be a much shorter buck if it did not do that.
