Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Rise and Extension of Submarine Telegraphy is a historical account of the development and expansion of the technology of submarine telegraphy, written by Willoughby Smith and originally published in 1891. The book covers the early history of telegraphy, the challenges of underwater communication, and the evolution of the technology that allowed for the laying of submarine cables across the ocean. Smith discusses the engineering challenges faced by early pioneers of submarine telegraphy, including the difficulties of laying cables in deep water and the need for insulation to prevent signal loss. He also describes the political and economic factors that drove the expansion of submarine telegraphy, including the growth of global trade and the need for rapid communication between nations. The book includes detailed descriptions of the various types of cable used in submarine telegraphy, as well as the technical specifications of the equipment used to transmit and receive signals. The Rise and Extension of Submarine Telegraphy is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of telecommunications and the development of modern communication technologies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
