Adventurer and inventor Clarence Birdseye had a fascination with food preservation that led him to develop and patent the Birdseye freezing process and start the company that still bears his name today. His limitless curiosity spurred his other inventions, including the electric sunlamp, an improved incandescent lightbulb, and a harpoon gun to tag finback whales. This true story of an early entrepreneur is as thrilling as the story of Steve Jobs or Mark Zuckerberg. Includes an 8-page black-and-white photo insert"-- Audience:  Age 10 and up.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library YA -- Nonfiction 338.7664 Birdseye Ku Checked In Add Copy to MyList
