Tesla?

After watching The Prestige last night I would like to read more about Nikola Tesla. The problem is there are lots of books out there and I’m sure there are a lot of crappy ones. Does anyone have some recommended books about Tesla and his works?

Thanks!

Everything I know about Tesla, I learned from Spider Robinson (http://www.spiderrobinson.com/calkeyreview.html).

We saw The Prestige, too. It was cool (I got the one twist early enough on but didn't get the last one till Tom told me--the last scene at the prison) but there weren't any really relatable main characters. LOVED David Bowie, though.

I'm in the same boat. The Wiki Page is a pretty good place to start, I would think.

The one that's written in green ink, and claims that tesla was a martian? Stay away from that one.

You know Tesla was responsible for the Tunguska Event. He was aiming for St. Petersburg and missed.
