If you have read the Colorado Springs Notes (CSN) and been baffled by some of the entries or have had trouble relating them to your own efforts with Tesla coil construction, than this is the book for you. By reading along with the CSN and checking the author's annotations, you will soon see what Tesla's daily activities were all about, written in an understandable style. As a bonus, Hull gives details on how his group, the Tesla Coil Builders of Richmond, have verified many of Tesla's ideas and techniques, and incorporated them into their modern day oscillator designs. In addition, a fantastic set of photographs shows their various magnifier configurations in full action. The emphasis throughout this work is on the hands-on approach and not a lot of theoretical "pie-in-the-sky" machinations. It provides easy reading for the empirical investigator who wants to understand what Tesla actually accomplished in Colorado during the brilliant period of investigation that ran from May 1899 to January 1900.

No-Nonsense explanation of what Tesla really did in CS!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tesla Coil Builder's Guide to the Colorado Springs Notes of Nikola Tesla (Spiral-bound)
Richard has really outdone himself this time! The guide the the Colorado Springs Notes is a compehensive explanation of the day-to-day happenings is Nikola Tesla's Colorado Springs Laboratory. This book cuts through all the hype and myth and takes a more objective and scientific look. Unlike other books, that claim terrifying lightning discharges along with wireless power and spaceships, Hull's book conveyes the truth. It is all very down to earth and believable, all of the author's statements are based on fact, not wild-eyed speculation. The guide contains a wealth of invaluable information on synergistic coil building techniques which are so many times overlooked or neglected by the hobbyist who wants a fool proof "recipe". This guide is written with a very human touch, so don't about being bored by too much dry, raw data. Even if you don't own the notes, this book is a must have for any coiler or Teslaphile alike. This book is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!Adam Parker
