Title

[D8104ZCV], Letter from George Edward Gouraud to Thomas Alva Edison, September 10th, 1881

Editor's Notes

Describes rest taken in form of driving tour of England and France. Notes Edison's Paris exhibit in rapturous terms. Some interesting discussions of comparison between Edison's exhibit and those of Swan, Maxim, and "Lane-Fox". Gouraud also weighs in on matters such as isolated plants and TAE's decision to wait for perfection of the whole system before introducing it (approval). Mentions Fabbri in connection with this knowledge as his source.
