- Title: The Inventor and the Tycoon: A Gilded Age Murder and the Birth of Moving Pictures
- Author: Edward Ball
- Borrowed from DC Public Library (Audiobook)

My wife and I had a five day weekend over this period due to our taking Friday off, Monday as President's day, and a favorably timed snow storm on Thursday that closed down our offices. Favorably not just because it was 5 days off, but because we had a big-ish home improvement project that ended up taking almost every waking hour of that 5 day period.
To kill the time when we were not being too noisy and/or not listening to Pandora, we would put this book on for an hour or two at a time. It was pretty enjoyable, and while it mostly focused on the photographer (murderer), the rain tycoon part was probably even more interesting to us. All in all a great book for a long and sometimes tedious DIY project.
