Selected bibliography. Index. The author was a professor of English at Skidmore College. He had worked with Ken Burns of Florentine Films on documentaries including Empires of the Air, a film based on this book (which earned an Emmy nomination). Three American visionaries (Lee de Forest, Edwin Howard Armstrong, and David Sarnoff) whose imagination and dreams turned a hobbyists' toy into radio, launching the modern communications age. Empire of the Air uncovers the almost unknown story of the creation of radio. It is a story of pioneering technology, of the American entrepreneurial spirit, and of the tragic collision between the corporation and the lone inventor.
