About this ebook
Charles Ludwig retells Michael Faraday’s remarkable life story in fictionalized form. Here is the father of the electric motor, the dynamo, the transformer, the generator. Few persons are aware of the brilliant man’s deep Christian convictions and his determination to live by the Sermon on the Mount. For ages 12 to 15.
Charles Ludwig
Charles Ludwig spent his youth with his missionary parents in Kenya. Devouring all available books on electricity, he soon became interested in amateur radio. He wound his own coils, manufactured his own batteries, and with a one-cylindered engine driving a discarded Chevrolet generator, developed enough power to operate his own radio station. Ludwig and his family lived in Tuscon, Arizona, where he devoted most of his time to freelance writing.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5This was my "review" when I read this book:
I loved this book. Faraday's life is amazing because he overcame many obstacles in becoming a scientist, and the reason he was able to overcome those trials was because he relied on God. (Even to the end of his life he supported his mother.)
