Fun with Radio
Fun with Radiois a book by Gilbert Davey first published in 1957 by Edmund Ward Ltd (London). At a time when radio receivers were still very expensive, and portable radios still a rarity (transistors were just being introduced) the book introduced many younsters, mainly boys, to radio construction, and in some cases a career in Radio or Electronics. Radio construction was, for a while, the number one hobby among boys.
Gilbert Davey had a caree as an insurance official, and was an amateur in the field of Radio, but his enthusiasm and straightforward writing with diagrams inspired many youngsters.
The book ran to six editions. Davey also wrote 'Fun with Short Waves'.
