Présentation de l'éditeur :
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Description du livre Buch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - BUILDER OF TOMORROWS by HELEN M. FESSENDEN. Firat published in New York 1940. FOREWORD: To THE WORLD of Today and the World of Tomorrow, worlds alike benefited and enriched by the life of Reginald A. Fessenden, I give the man himself. That the mind which conceived the correct theory of wireless transmission, which invented the Wireless Telephone and with it accomplished the first Broadcasting, which invented and developed the Fathometer and all it implied, that this mind failed to de fend itself against commercial assault, whether financial or scientific, is an inescapable fact. For this fact I make no apology. Mine is the setting forth of factual data, an indication of trends, not the indictment of any man or group of men. Without a straightforward account of certain legal encounters, the life of my husband would be but partly told. The outcome of these encounters is a matter of court record which he who runs may read. It is however not by court decisions but by his work that the man will be remembered. It is a pet idea of mine that one gets more real truth out o one avowed partisan than out of a dozen of your sham impartialists wolves in sheeps clothing simpering honesty as they suppress documents. After all, what one wants to know is not what people did, but why they did it or rather why they thought they did it and to learn that you should go to the men themselves, their very falsehood is often more than another mans truth.

FOREBEARS AND CHILDHOOD. REGINALD AUBREY FESSENDEN was born on October 6, 1866 in the rectory of the small parish of East Bolton on a bay of Lake Memphremagog, Lower Canada. The tapestry of commingled lives that forms the back ground of an individual is always revealing. The pattern never exactly repeats itself, but dominant characteristics re cur again and again. Fortunate is the man whose birthright is a fabric, close knit, clean and strong such a one is indeed well born. From Kent, from Yorkshire, from Northumber land came the warp threads of the fabric forming the back ground of this rectory baby. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781443721301
