Ralph,

You want to also get the book Richard Hull wrote. It explains most of
Tesla's notes and most importantly (for me) it converted terms that were
common at that time into units I'm familiar with. I wish I had this book the
first time I struggled through the notes...

Tesla Coil Builder's Guide to the Colorado Springs Notes
of Nikola Tesla Second Edition
by Richard Hull
xxvii, 203 pp., well illustrated
ISBN: 1-893817-00-8
371-TCBG ... $27.50

There is a lot of commentary on the book at 

http://www.tfcbooks-dot-com/mall/more/371tcbg.htm

and you can order it there also...

Regards,
Brian B.

I got a very nice copy of the Colorado notes from Amazon. It took them 3 
weeks to
get it and I was getting worried. 450 pages, 1 inch thick x 8 1/2 x 11 1/2, 
-- a big book,
hard cover, $40. The book is published in 1977 by the Nikola Tesla Museum
in Belgrade, Yugoslavia. There is a nice preface by the compiler, no index 
but this is Tesla's lab notes, not a text book. There are some nice 
photographs including one of Tesla peering out from behind the lab front 
door. Tesla's original drawings are well
reproduced.  Lots of good references.
I am very pleased with the purchase. Five Stars.  :-))

Cheers,
Ralph Zekelman
