5.0 out of 5 stars The best history of a commercial enterprise that I've ever read., April 21, 2008

Eclectic Music of all genres (Clifton Park, NY USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The General Electric Story: A Heritage of Innovation 1876 - 1999 (Hardcover)

This is an excellent book, filled with much history and information about Edison, Steinmetz and other inventive geniuses, as well as the story of how a gigantic commercial, global establishment was built.
