Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Telegraphic Tales and Telegraphic History: A Popular Account of the Electric Telegraph, Its Uses, Extent and Outgrowths Some time ago the subscriber published a number of anecdotes relating to telegraphy, which were received with an unexpected degree of favor. They were so extensively copied in the newspapers as to set him thinking that the preparation of such a book as this would please the reading public, as well as members of the telegraphic profession. Hence the undertaking herewith put on the book market as a candidate for popular favor. No more is claimed for it than that it presents, in a methodized and compact form, a comprehensive summary of such telegraphic information as is likely to be valued by the general public, and of use to the operator because of the convenient method of its presentation - varied, as is desirable, with lighter matter. Very considerable labor has been expended upon it, in the hope and belief that it will occupy an unique place among those books which instruct without being tedious and entertain wholesomely.
