A History of Wireless Telegraphy, 1838-1899: Including Some Bare-Wire Proposals for Subaqueous Telegraphs by J.J. Fahie is a comprehensive account of the early development of wireless communication. The book covers the period from 1838 to 1899, during which time many important discoveries were made in the field of telegraphy. The author provides a detailed overview of the key figures involved in the development of wireless communication, including Samuel Morse, Alexander Graham Bell, and Guglielmo Marconi.The book also explores some of the more unusual proposals that were made for subaqueous telegraphs, which were designed to transmit messages across bodies of water. These proposals included the use of bare-wire cables that would be suspended across the water, as well as more complex systems involving insulated cables and underwater repeaters.Throughout the book, the author provides detailed descriptions of the various technologies that were developed during this period, including the electromagnetic telegraph, the telephone, and the wireless telegraph. He also discusses the social and economic impact of these technologies, and the ways in which they transformed communication and transportation.Overall, A History of Wireless Telegraphy, 1838-1899 is a fascinating and informative account of a pivotal period in the history of communication. It will appeal to anyone with an interest in the history of technology or the development of modern communication systems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
