About this Book:

“Whenever, in the pride of some new discovery, we throw a look into the past, we find, to our dismay, certain vestiges which indicate the possibility, if not the certainty, that the alleged discovery was not totally unknown to the ancients,” wrote Madame H. P. Blavatsky, in Isis Unveiled, well over a hundred years ago. “It is generally asserted that neither the early inhabitants of the Mosaic times, nor even the more civilized nations of the Ptolemaic period were acquainted with electricity. If we remain undisturbed in this opinion, it is not for the lack of proofs to the contrary.” "The Electric Mirror on the Pharos Lighthouse and Other Ancient Lighting" provides these proofs through many illustrations of ancient coins, bas reliefs, and other ancient artifacts as well as through an abundance of documented evidence.

About the Author:

Larry Brian Radka is a two-time graduate of The University of New York, an amateur radio operator (KB3ZU), and a retired broadcast engineer. He has had 40 years of experience with electricity and the study of history. His ability to translate French and his library of nearly 5000 old hardback books provides the needed resources to write such a scholarly and comprehensive work.

Book Review:

Synopsis: This book aims to prove—through a comprehensive presentation of ancient coins, artifacts, monuments, and literature—that the ancients used electricity to light up their temples, tombs, lighthouses, fortresses, palaces, cities and other edifices and critical areas. No other work on the subject in existence documents nearly as much evidence of the fact, and it recalls interesting details and descriptions of the ancient Alexandrian Pharos Lighthouse and its electric beacon, some of which have never been published in English before. As a bonus, the author presents a good explanation of carbon arc lights and a history of their use in more modern searchlights (electric mirrors) and lighthouses.
