Synopsis

Philo Farnsworth was just fourteen years old and working in a potato field when the idea of a television set first came to him. Eight years later he made the world's first working TV--and forever transformed the way the we see the world. Now in paperback, and perfect for the classroom or the family room, this acclaimed picture book biography traces Farnsworth's early interest in machines and his obsession with a way to make "pictures fly through the air" in a way that's both accessible and inspiring.
