Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Telegraph Practice: A Complete Technical Course in Modern, Telegraphy, Including Simultaneous Telegraphy and Telephony In this work the aim has been to give a detailed exposition of the various systems of telegraphy in use in America at the present time, together with a complete description of modern methods of operation, and an extensive compilation of the formulae used in practical telegraphy. One occasionally hears it remarked that since the practical introduction of the quadruplex about thirty years ago there have been no important developments in telegraphy, but those who have been engaged in the work of improving telegraph apparatus and operating methods are well aware that even since the last American book dealing with this subject was written several years ago, material progress has been made in several directions. The fact that to-day eighty telegrams per hour are handled over a single Morse outlet where ten years ago half that number in the same time was considered good performance, and that during the same period the time of transmission of a telegram between cities remotely separated has been reduced at least one-half, cannot but be regarded as convincing evidence that vast improvement has taken place. One factor that has contributed largely to the improvement in the service is the increasing technical knowledge of the men engaged in operating the plant; and this, in spite of the fact that the production of technical telegraph literature has not kept pace with the actual development of the art. In the present work the author has incorporated all of the elemental essentials of the general subject as well as all of the new departures which have made for betterment, and an attempt has been made to treat the various divisions of the subject in terms that should make it possible for the student, by due exercise of diligence, to qualify himself for the most advanced positions in the service. Incidentally, it might here be stated that it is no longer possible for the telegrapher to make much headway in the service without an understanding of arithmetic and elementary algebra, and, while usually mathematical formulae are regarded as being incomprehensible, by those who have not had the advantages of high school education, the author believes that as herein employed and worked out, all of the required mathematics may be mastered without difficulty.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A complete history of how the telegraph revolutionized technological practice and life in America. Telegraphy in the nineteenth century approximated the internet in our own day. Historian and electrical engineer David Hochfelder offers readers a comprehensive history of this groundbreaking technology, which employs breaks in an electrical current to send code along miles of wire. The Telegraph in America, 1832–1920 examines the correlation between technological innovation and social change and shows how this transformative relationship helps us to understand and perhaps define modernity. The telegraph revolutionized the spread of information—speeding personal messages, news of public events, and details of stock fluctuations. During the Civil War, telegraphed intelligence and high-level directives gave the Union war effort a critical advantage. Afterward, the telegraph helped build and break fortunes and, along with the railroad, altered the way Americans thought about time and space. With this book, Hochfelder supplies us with an introduction to the early stirrings of the information age.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writer Tracy Nelson Maurer and illustrator El Primo Ramón present a lively picture book biography of Samuel Morse that highlights how he revolutionized modern technology. Back in the 1800s, information traveled slowly. Who would dream of instant messages? Samuel Morse, that’s who! Who traveled to France, where the famous telegraph towers relayed 10,000 possible codes for messages depending on the signal arm positions—only if the weather was clear? Who imagined a system that would use electric pulses to instantly carry coded messages between two machines, rain or shine? Long before the first telephone, who changed communication forever? Samuel Morse, that’s who! This dynamic and substantive biography celebrates an early technology pioneer.

Download or read book Modern Practice of the Electric Telegraph written by Frank Pope and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of this book, Franklin (Frank) Leonard Pope, was a renowned American telegrapher and electrical engineer. He began his career as a local telegraphist, employed by the American Telegraph Company in his home town of Great Barrington, Mass. He came to the notice of Marshall Lefferts, engineer-in-chief of that company, who, impressed by Pope's obvious skills and competence, transferred him to New York and promoted him to assistant engineer. Later in life he became assistant engineer and chief-of-exploration to the Collins Overland Telegraph Expedition, which attempted to establish a telegraph line through the wilderness of Canada and Alaska to the Bering Strait. The intention was to link with a Russian line to Moscow and thus establish communications between America and Europe. The successful laying of the Atlantic cable by Cyrus Field rendered the scheme redundant when it was about one third completed, and it was abandoned at enormous cost. In 1868 Pope began to write this book. He intended it to provide a complete handbook for the average American telegraphist and electrician and also for aspiring students. On its first publication it received glowing reviews from both industry and the general press. The first edition sold out in four weeks. Subsequently it went through fifteen reprints up to 1895, and it was adopted as a text book by the United States Signal Service. Pope's clarity of description and the use of his own practical experiences helped many readers to understand the basic principles of telegraphy, and to develop their own skills in the esoteric art of electric communications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Practice of the Electric Telegraph: A Handbook for Electricians and Operators During the quarter of a century which has elapsed since the introduction of the Electric Telegraph in the United States, those engaged in its service have been almost entirely dependent upon verbal instruction, and long practical experience, for a thorough technical knowledge of their profession. The works accessible to the American telegrapher have been of a popular, rather than of a strictly scientific character, or else of so elementary a nature as to be of little service except to the most inexperienced students. It is true that a number of excellent foreign works have appeared within a few years; yet the difficulty and expense of obtaining them, as well as their want of applicability to the American telegraphic system, has prevented their general circulation among the class for which this work is more especially designed. The unexpectedly favorable reception which has been accorded to the first three editions of this work, has led the author to believe that it has, to some extent, supplied the acknowledged deficiency which had previously existed in this branch of literature. The present edition has been carefully revised, as well as enlarged by the addition of much new matter, and is believed to embrace all the recent discoveries and improvements in practical telegraphy, which have successfully passed through the test of actual experience. The methods of testing telegraph lines and apparatus by actual measurement, which are now universally employed in Europe, and to some extent in this country, have been treated upon to an extent commensurate with the importance of the subject. It is hoped that, with the aid of this work, the student may obtain a complete and satisfactory knowledge of this useful and beautiful system.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History, Theory, and Practice of the Electric Telegraph There is no subject upon which the American public should be better informed, and none, perhaps, in which it should feel greater pride, than in that of the foremost invention of the age, the Electric Telegraph; f6r aside from the fact that three of the best systems in use are American inventions, and that to our countrymen is due the credit of producing the first successful recording electric telegraph, it is more generally used in this country than in any other, and probably more than in all others combined, for the common convenience of mankind. In Europe, with the exception of Great Britain, the use of the telegraph is almost wholly under the control of the governments, and its use restricted by the high rates of tolls to the wealthier classes, while in this country it is alike open to all, and telegraphic despatches are "household words" among the poorer as well as the wealthier citizens.
