Arthur Collins Radio Wizard

Great book. Wish there was more pictures not to mention pictures in proper locations to help set the story. Being an Iowa amateur operator its nice to see some local history.The format was odd too follow. Chapters divided up based on certain subjects like type of technology and not chronological. So throughout the book it often repeated itself. Sometimes close to verbatim.

Took me a long time to finally track this book down, a serious look at Arthur Collins

This detailed history of Arthur Collins life from childhood to passing is filled with engrossing information about the products and procedures of the formation of Collins Radio Company and eventual merger and acquisition by Rockwell International. Vintage radio buffs and students of corporate history will recognize the ups and downs of small and large company life.

Excellent book. Enjoyed it immensely.

This is history of a great engineerand I found it very interesting -I grew up when COLLINS RADIOwas in full " swing " in the 50s and 60s

I would have liked more pictures, but a great historical book on Art. Collins.

This was a delightful and insightful read. I have worked worked on and used Collins communication and navigation gear for over twenty years and always wondered how this equipment seemed, in every case, to outperform and outlast it's competitors. While you discover how the gifted Arthur Collins worked his radio wizardry you may start to find you have a few gifts of your own you would like develope!

I am very happy with the book and looking forward to reading it
