This is a fascinating and excellent book on the history of telegraphic communications and how each successive improvement made the world smaller. However, there is a glaring omission. The book ends by implying the telegraph is dead and no longer exists, when in fact, there are thousands of amateur radio operators who use telegraph keys and Morse code on a daily basis today. A final chapter describing this would have been most appropriate.
