Publisher's Synopsis
The fifth book in Tundra's Great Idea Series tells the story of Guglielmo Marconi, who became the father of wireless communication. As a boy, Marconi loved science and invention. And, thanks to his persistence, on December 12, 1901, for the first time ever, a wireless signal travelled between two continents. The rest is history. Kulling's playful, informative text, combined with the compelling illustrations of artist Richard Rudnicki, bring an amazing inventor and his times to life.
