About this title

Synopsis

The story of one of the most influential inventors who ever lived!

The Story of Thomas A. Edison paints a living picture of Edison and his unique ideas in a narrative that follows his life from "train boy" to newspaper publisher to telegraph operator to world-famous inventor.

Originally written in 1901, this biography is excellent for all ages—engaging enough for adults and readable for younger children. This expanded and updated edition includes additional photographs, patent sketches, and personal diary notes that will help you get to know the man behind the invention of the phonograph, the incandescent electric light, the motion picture camera, and many other inventions that still affect our lives today.
