The Last Days of Night
by Graham Moore
The book is historical fiction and the story is compelling but the historical inaccuracies, even though admitted, left me wanting stronger fare. It tells the story of Edison, Westinghouse and Tesla and their struggle to control the development of electricity in America. It was not too dissimilar to our time with Google, Facebook and Amazon fighting for mindspace. I couldn’t put the book down but I wanted more. Summary: a good book about a very interesting subject but not totally satisfying.
