Philo Farnsworth was an inquisitive boy who had been interested in "anything mechanical" since he was a very small boy. Trains, telephones and phonographs were wondrous and magical inventions that excited and stirred his imagination. It was a passion that his father shared with him. He told his son about Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell and their inventions. When his father was temporarily away on a work assignment, Philo, at the tender age of eight, was left in charge of the family. Perhaps as a result, he grew ...more

[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-03 Summary: Above and beyond most other TV drama writing books ... I have both editions of this book and want to add a special plug for the most recent edition.

There's also great advice from David Milch ...more
