Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handbook of Practical Telegraphy As the Telegraphs in Great Britain and Ireland have now passed into the hands of the State, a slight sketch of the history of the system in this country may not be out of place. The Electric Telegraph was introduced by Cooke and Wheatstone, whose first joint patent was granted in 1837, in which year the earliest demonstration of the practicability of the system was made by the establishment of an experimental circuit between Eu ston and Camden Town, on the London and Birmingham Railway. The first actual working telegraph was erected in 1838, between Paddington and West Drayton, on the Great Western Rail way.
