Nikola Tesla: Biography of a True Genius

3.5 Stars
Overall, this is a fair account of the major events in Tesla’s life. The writing is a little dry, but I enjoyed most of it well enough. The narrator gave a good performance, enhancing the experience. I did get rather annoyed during the last third of the book (when the story gets depressing) because already established facets of Tesla’s character were brought up repeatedly. I did appreciate the final thoughts/conclusions at the end of the book and I think that they wrapped up the presentation nicely.
I received a free Audible copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
