Review: Interesting, not the best-written

I enjoyed reading about Edison and Tesla in this book. Much of the information about Edison is pretty well known, but I knew very little about Tesla. Tesla is better represented than Edison in the book, which worked for me. I didn't do any fact-checking so I can't say anything about the veracity of what is printed. Some of it is speculation and clearly states that. Evidently Tesla was pretty reclusive as he aged. There isn't always a good flow to the narrative in this book - it feels very "thrown together" - ish. But it's short, an easy read, had info I didn't know about Tesla's documented accomplishments, some pictures that I had not seen, and I borrowed it as an Amazon Prime member so it cost me nothing.
