Samuel F. B. Morse and the Dawn of the Age of Electricity, Hardback Book

Samuel F. B. Morse and the Dawn of the Age of Electricity Hardback

Hardback

Description

The Morse telegraph launched the electronic telecommunications industry and reduced the travel time of information from days,  weeks and months to seconds and minutes.  It was one of the most important  breakthrough inventions of all time.

George F. Botjer's examination of the creator of the telegraph is based on previously unpublished archival sources.

It considers Samuel F. B. Morse, the creator of the first telegraph, and the ways in which place and time had an effect on the launch of his invention and his resulting fame, and how the invention affected the inventor himself.
