Manuscript papers, unpublished and published, of German physicist Heinrich Hertz

Hertz laid down the foundations for the development of radio communication. These papers lead up to his demonstration of the properties of electro-magnetic waves. He did not realise their potential value for communication and died before others, such as Marconi, began to apply his work to practical ends.
