OK, Let's kick this off right.

Radio World had a great review 6 months ago or so of a new biography named "Crosley" "Two Brothers and a Business Empire That Transformed The Nation". McClure, Stern, Banks. Published by Clerisy Press, 2007.  isbn  13: 978-1-57860-291-9.

I love to read but I often find history biography's very dry. Radio World's book reviewer loved the book and so did I. This is a history of not only the Crosley boys but a history of the golden days of radio with a generous helping of industrial revolution mixed in.

The story is well written and edited. You are "in the room" so to speak when many decisions that effect our every day way of life today are made.

I'm no expert but I really enjoyed this book. Your mileage may very. I'd like to hear from other readers.
