It all depends on how you define "turn of the century".
Explanation:
The last half of the Nineteenth Century was one of the most prolific invention periods in the history of the world. Most of the elements we take for granted in everyday life were invented then:
#1876:# Telephone#1877:# Phonograph#1879:# Light bulb (electrical distribution soon followed)#1898:# Radio (Tesla)#1901:# Radio (Marconi) (Still some dispute about that one)#1901:# First mass-produced automobile (Ransom E. Olds)
Almost everything we see around us today derived from these inventions and others.
I'll leave it to you to decide which one(s) had the most impact on your daily life -- automobiles, radio, distributed electricity, or telephones.
