An accomplished telegraph engineer in his own right, Sir Charles
Bright (1863 1937) was the son of Sir Charles Tilston Bright (1832
88), who had achieved greatness in laying the first transatlantic
cable in 1858. The younger Bright worked alongside his father for a
time, continued his research, and became an authority on the
subject. Examining the history, construction and working of
submarine telegraphs, this 1898 treatise traces both technical and
commercial developments, looking also at the labour involved.
Bright addresses the laying of cables across the globe, giving
accounts of projects in India, South America and beyond.
Illuminating the many commercial uses for submarine cables, Bright
provides an informed survey of the early standardisation of
telegraphy systems. Replete with detailed illustrations and
technical drawings, this work remains an indispensable resource on
the history of telecommunications and electrical engineering."
