Over the course of less than 20 years, inventor Frank J Sprague (1857-1934) achieved an astonishing series of breakthroughs. Frederick Dalzell tells Sprague's story, setting it against the backdrop of one of the most dynamic periods in the history of technology.
Laying the foundation for Thomas Edison, the first electric generators were built in the 1830s, the earliest commercial lighting systems before 1860, and the first commercial application of generator-powered light in the early 1860s. This book examines some of these early applications of electricity.
