Description

Explore a new perspective on the telegraph system with Telegraph Messenger Boys by Gregory J. Downey. Published by Routledge, this book examines how a massive communications network changed human perceptions of time and space between 1850 and 1950. Rather than focusing solely on the technical advent of telegraphy, Downey tells a broad story about human interaction with technology. The text investigates the social and cultural changes brought about by these advancements. This work is an important resource for those studying the history of communications and the evolution of labor. As noted by William S. Pretzer of the Henry Ford Museum, this book offers analytical approaches that are highly relevant for labor historians. It provides a deep look into how technology and society shaped one another during a transformative century.
