Description

What if one man's dreams could have powered the world without wires? Nikola Tesla, the enigmatic genius behind alternating current, dared to imagine such a future, a vision that lit cities, sparked revolutions, and left an indelible mark on history. This book unveils the extraordinary life of this visionary inventor, from his electrifying triumphs to his heartbreaking struggles, told with the intimacy of a fireside tale.

Journey through Tesla's world: a boy in a Croatian village, mesmerized by the sparks of a stormy night; a young engineer outwitting rivals like Edison in the War of the Currents; a showman dazzling crowds at the Chicago World's Fair with bolts of man-made lightning. Discover his audacious experiments in Colorado Springs, where he conjured artificial storms, and his doomed Wardenclyffe Tower, a dream of wireless energy crushed by financial realities. Meet the man who loved pigeons as fiercely as he loved invention, whose eccentricities and solitude only deepened his mystique.
His story is one of resilience against betrayal, poverty, and a society not ready for his genius.

Perfect for readers of history, science, and human drama, this book is a captivating portrait of a man who saw the future and dared to chase it. Dive into the life of Nikola Tesla, a story of sparks that still light our imagination.
