TY - GEN AB - Laying the foundation for Thomas Edison, the first electric generators were built in the 1830s, the earliest commercial lighting systems before 1860, and the first commercial application of generator-powered light in the early 1860s. This book examines some of these early applications of electricity. AU - Schiffer, Michael B., CN - TK23 CY - Cambridge, Mass. : DA - ©2008.
