This is one of my favorite books. I've read it several times.

I remember reading this in high school, for a book report. It is a great source of inspiration. I&#39;m glad it&#39;s now online. Thomas Edison is also one of the historical figures I admire most.

Thanks, I had never read this or known of its existence but I thoroughly enjoyed it.<p>It's fascinating to read about pre-corporate capitalism.
