Résumé du livre
"Once we began reading...we couldn't put it down...information unavailable elsewhere...Radio historians have been waiting for this...fascinating biographies about wireless inventors & promoters. High quality photographs abundantly placed throughout." "On a scale of one to ten, WIRELESS COMMUNICATION IN THE UNITED STATES certainly rates a ten."--James & Felicia Kreuzer in "Antique Radio Classified". "Coherent history of the brash early years of commercial wireless...Illustrated with charming examples...letters by wireless pioneers adds insight...index of individuals by name. The photos are rare gems...entertaining, informative, good value. Wireless history has been blessed with carefully researched histories, but for all around worth the Mayes book is it!"--Ludwell Sibley, Editor, in "The Old Timer's Bulletin", Antique Wireless Association. Mr. Sibley says "Best thirty dollars I've spent in years." " This is the best radio book that has been published in recent times. It is superbly printed - the photos are clear & sharp. Some of the photos are truly unbelievable.... The real essence of the book is the stories of the individuals who developed radio technology. A lot of these individuals are getting recognition for the first time. "Great book...buy it."--Barry Wiseman, "The Electric Radio", March '90
