Frank Julian Sprague: Electrical Inventor and Engineer
I've enjoyed all the William D Middleton books that I've read but this one was a little weaker than I expected. I suspect that it may be the case where the subject may not have lived up to his billing. Sprague was a smart guy, no doubt, but I have trouble placing him in the same class as Bell, Edison, et al, like his survivors seemed to have tried to do.
