Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life Story of the Late Sir Charles Tilston Bright, Vol. 1: Civil Engineer With Which Is Incorporated the Story of the Atlantic Cable, and the First Telegraph to India and the Colonies In the first place we wish it to be understood that in undertaking the biography of the late Sir Charles Bright ourselves, instead of entrusting it to a writer more accustomed to work of this nature, we do so in the belief that though our literary powers may not be worthy of our subject, we can nevertheless give a more accurate and true story of the man and his life and work: just as a writer who has actually witnessed a scene which he describes, pictures it often in a more vivid manner than another who, not an eyewitness, may be in a literary sense his superior. No one it seemed to us was better qualified in this case than his brother, who was his fellow worker and collaborator throughout the greater part of his life; in conjunction with the son, who has, for the last fifteen years, endeavoured to follow in his father´s footsteps.
