Genius, Power, and Deception on the Eve of World War I
Douglas Brunt
This book delves into the mysterious disappearance of Rudolf Diesel, one of the world’s greatest inventors, on September 29, 1913. Diesel, whose internal combustion engine was about to revolutionize global industry, vanished during a steamship journey between Belgium and England. The narrative explores Diesel's rise from an impoverished European childhood to becoming a multi-millionaire and an international celebrity, as well as his conflicts with powerful figures like Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany and John D. Rockefeller. Author Douglas Brunt provides a riveting new conclusion about Diesel’s fate, blending historical insight with detective storytelling.
