Almost 20 years ago The Johns Hopkins University Press started publishing The Complete Papers of Tomas A. Edison. 1989 brought the first of what was to be a 20 volume series with one volume published every 2 years. Well, after Volumes 1 and 2 things slowed down a lot! Volume 5 was published in 2004. But today I received my advance copy of Volume 6! This one is Entitled "Electrifying New York and Abroad" and covers April 1881-March 1883. It is 891 pages long! So the project goes on - though it will probably not be finished in my lifetime at this rate. The publication date is October 15, 2007.
