Review:

'In the future when people wish to look up the facts of his life and achievements I believe it will be to this remarkable book that they turn first.' Michael Bennett-Levy, BVWS Bulletin'Kamm and Baird - the latter the inventor's son - tell their tale dispassionately, and amidst their careful coverage of the complex technological and business history of Baird and television manage to paint a strikingly clear portrait of the inventor who started it all.'Russell A Potter, The Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television
