Sam Insull, Thomas Edison, and the Creation of the Modern Metropolis, by John F. Wasik. Palgrave Macmillan, New York 2006 (our copy from Palgrave Macmillan, 627 Chapel Street, South Yarra VIC 3141). 271 pp., ill., index. Price: $A 42.00.
Everybody knows about Edison, but few readers of this review will probably have heard of Insull. Yet at the height of his career Samuel Insull was one of the world's richest men, a businessperson who wielded enormous influence in financial circles, and commanded a commercial empire far greater than Edison.
