Freaks of the Wireless

What began as a seemingly straightforward business deal quickly devolves into a feud between Guglielmo Marconi, the Father of Radio, and Nevil Maskelyne the world famous magician. Over several years from 1900 the conflict intensifies up to a dramatic conclusion at the Royal Institution that left egos smashed and reputations in tatters.

In the upcoming book “Freaks of the Wireless” you will read about how the events unfolded against the vibrant backdrop of rapid technological development during the industrial revolution. The legendary exchanges between Marconi and Maskelyne are a quintessential motif of Victorian England.
