"Lewis Howard Latimer" by Katie Marsico explores the life of an often-overlooked inventor and engineer who made significant contributions to the development of the electric light bulb and other technologies. Born in the mid-1800s, Latimer faced the challenges of racial discrimination but persevered, becoming a prominent figure in the field of electrical engineering. The book highlights his innovations, including the patented process for producing carbon filaments, while also showcasing his role in advocating for the rights of African Americans. Through Latimer's story, readers learn about resilience, creativity, and the impact of one man's work on the world. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
