About this listen

The first biography of the American inventor known as "The Father of Remote Control" (1888-1963), who pioneered electronic remote control for modern radio devices, missile guidance systems, variable pitch propellers, other military innovations, and single dial radio tuning. After importing medieval architectural elements from Europe, he built the Hammond Castle, now a museum in Gloucester, Massachusetts. Originally published in 1987 under author's pen name, then Nancy Rubin and available at the Hammond Castle Museum, it is now in a digitized and updated version.
