Too few people know that the American inventor Hiram Maxim of Maine had in fact invented a light bulb rivaling that of Thomas Alva Edison and that the Edison organization paid Maxim off with $20,000 per year in 1883 to withdraw from the electricity business and to leave the United States for a minimum of ten years. Maxim travelled to England and pursued his second passion, his system to create the first true machine gun.
