A biography of the inventive genius of radio and jet fame who also developed a steam automobile.

The National Inventors Hall of Fame in Akron, Ohio, provides a biographical sketch of American inventor and industrialist William P. Lear (1902-1978). Lear held patents on such inventions as the automatic pilot for planes, eight-track stereo cartridges, and the car radio.

Bill's memoir is an incredible tale of life-long risks as an aviator and daredevil lin what has recently become one of the fastest growing spectator events in the world, air racing.

King Lear descends into madness after foolishly disposing of his estate between two of his three daughters based on their flattery, bringing tragic consequences for all. Sound like a good story? It is...if you can understand it. If you have struggled in the past reading Shakespeare, then BookCaps can help you out. This book is a modern translation of King Lear. The original text is also presented in the book, along with a comparable version of both text. We all need refreshers every now and then.
