In general, I purchase every book about Nikola Tesla or his work. In this case I was P.T. Barnum's classic sucker. There are a lot of bad books out there on this topic but this is the only one I've regretted buying. It has no real information about Tesla that can't be found in any of the serious Tesla works. It contains historical inaccuracies such as Tesla declining a Nobel Prize. And if one can't trust the easy historic things, how could anyone believe the major premise that Tesla is from the planet Venus! The author never bothers to explain how a person from that planet could live without a space suit on the terrifically cold planet earth. Most of the book claims top-secret revelations about area 51, anti-gravity devices, etc. These are all things I've seen or read about in UFO books since the mid-sixties. In fact one of the "secret" devices is an apparatus I remember playing with in electricity class in Junior high school that we called a "Thomson Ring". The diagrams are vague and the explanations meaningless. It doesn't take an inside military intelligence expert to find the bogus information covered in this book from other sources. If this is all the government knows about anti-gravity they are way behind the curve. There is absolutely nothing "reveling" or "astounding" or new in this book. Don't be a sucker like me. Don't waste your money purchasing it; don't even waste your time checking it out from the library. For people who want to know the facts about Nikola Tesla I highly recommend (must read) "TESLA Man Out Of Time" by Margaret Cheney. For people who want the facts in an easy to read format plus some speculation, both mild and wild, I recommend the fictional work "Tesla" by Tad Wise. For information about his equipment and experiments I recommend the original works by the man himself.

Frankly, I don't know where the previous reviewer says most of this material is available in other books.JUST THE OPPOSITE!In WHITE DOVE, the author deal with a bit of what I am sure he would agree is speculative -- and highly controversial -- material. For this book takes a much more metaphysical approach to Tesla' life than anything else that might have previously been published. But for this reason in particular I enjoyed this book cause it goes far a field to show that Tesla was one of a kind -- perhaps a WALK IN (like T Lobsang Rampa) from some othr time period, dimension or perhaps even extraterrestrial in origin. Commander X calls upon various Tesla authorities to make this point. There is also a lot of space devoted to the works of other creative individuals such as Otis T. Carr, Howard Menger and Mathews who was a close friend of Tesla who resided in Canada and shared Tesla' fascination with other worlds.If you want something out of the ordinary on Tesla there is only this book and LOST JOURNAL OF NIKOLA TESLA will fit your need.

THIS BOOK IS ONE OF A KIND. . . I have been privilaged to read many books on the life of Nikola Tesla. This is one of the few that delve into the unusual aspects of Tesla's life. The author -- a retired military intelligent officer -- did a background check an found out that Tesla had quite an unusual birth. He suggests that Nikola was actually a highly advanted space being who was reincarnated in an earthly body and left on the doorstep of the couple who raised him. We find that Tesla did have among his friends an inventor from Baltimore by the name of Otis T. Carr who in the l960s constructed his own anti gravity device which he claimed could fly to the moon. He supposed met Tesla many times in the hotel where Tesla lived during the last years of his life. We are treated to many insightful bits of information that have not been published elsewhere. This is a very readable book which anyone who is interested in Tesla's life -- and not so much technical information and patent information which can be found in hundred of other texts -- will find of great benefit.

This is really the book that got the whole "Tesla is a UFO whizz-kid" going and MANY of the other books out there owe it to non-other than Commander-X for the expose and getting their minds going. Truth be told that this book is 50% complete fiction, 25% semi-accurate and 25% accurate.

However it is still a must read! You will love it! It talks about Tesla as if he was an alien and then expands on that. As a work of fiction and some half-truths it goes down a treat. I recommend this book on the bases that you also read something more mainstream and vetted for accuracy or even books written by the man himself.

You will still love this book though. I know a lot of it is bunk but I still find myself sitting on the loo flicking through the pages now and again for a good laugh. The real fun is finding out what is true and what is not by doing your own research or reading other books.

This is great stuff.

I have to say that this book was really interesting to read. There is some great information regarding Tesla from his upbringing all the way through his life.
Some of the areas were hard to grasp especially Nikola Tesla being an off world alien, guess that is pretty hard to prove right lol. Needless to say this book you will find some great information and and excellent read.
Commander X is again up to full form and this book is no exception!
