He had a good relationship with his friend Twain
Tesla was Edison's enemy, Mark Twain's friend and J.P Morgan's client. Tesla made his first million before he was 40, yet gave up the royalties on his induction motor invention as a gesture of friendship to George Westinghouse and died almost in poverty. Handsome, magnetic and elegant he was the "catch" of New York society. A lifelong bachelor, he led a somewhat isolated existence, devoting his full energy to science.
Tesla wrote many autobiographical articles for the prominent journal Electrical Experimenter, collected in the book, My Inventions. Tesla was gifted with intense powers of visualization and exceptional memory from early youth on. He was able to fully construct, develop and perfect his inventions completely in his mind before committing them to paper. The book Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) - Lectures, Patents, Articles, now out of print, is the first major reference work published by the Nikola Tesla Museum in Beograd about the inventor. The edition appeared in 1956 and the book was subsequently reprinted in 1991. It contains the text of four lectures delivered by Tesla during the period between 1888 and 1893 plus one delivered in absentia in 1898. As for patents, the book contains only those granted to Tesla in the United States; the compilers chose to include only 99 of the 112 patents actually issued to him. Additionally there are 17 scientific and technical articles written between 1891 and 1920, 7 articles of a general nature written between 1897 and 1917, and an autobiographical article from 1915.
