More than any other individual, Edison was responsible for introducing the modern age of electricity. But as well as pioneering the first commercial electric light and power system, he also invented the phonograph, the microphone and an early movie camera. His gripping story is one of determination and triumph. Other titles in the series: Amelia Earhart, Alexander the Great, Captain Cook, Cleopatra, Eric the Red Galileo, Gandhi, Hans Christian Andersen, Henry Ford, Roald Dahl and William Shakespeare.
