"A stellar example of historical investigation at its probing best."—Chuck Leddy, Boston Globe
It'll be stacked in the science shelves, but The Telephone Gambit might be an early contender for best thriller of the year. Seth Shulman's unlikely whodunit poses a question most of us think we already know the answer to: Who invented the telephone?
The patent for the telephone is said to be the most lucrative ever awarded. In addition to wealth, it guaranteed immortality to the man to whom it was issued, Alexander Graham Bell, a historical icon whose first successful transmission of speech over a wire -- "Mr. Watson, come here. I want to see you" -- is the stuff of legend, familiar to schoolchildren across the land.

The Telephone Gambit: Chasing Alexander Graham Bell's Secret
What if one of the best known inventors stole his idea from someone else? What if it was only uncovered 100 years later by accident? This true story of the discovery of the intrigues behind the invention of the telephone will blow apart the story you've taken for granted since it was first told to you way back when. An amazing tale of historical research that reads like a detective novel. Highly recommended.
