Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Practical Information for Telephonists
Most of the articles were originally written for, and have already appeared in, the operator; but in preparing them for publication in book form, they have all been carefully revised by the author, and, in nearly every instance, more or less rewritten. They were all written with pleasure to the author, and with the desire that they might be not only interesting but profitable to the reader.
This book is not put forward as a text-book of electrical science, a manual of telegraphy, or even as a complete hand-book of the telephone; neither is it intended so much for the delectation and instruction of professional and accomplished electricians as a popular means of conveying practical ideas, mainly proved to be practical by actual practice, to that large and daily increasing constituency of telephone inspectors and operators and, also, to the equally large class of amateurs who, by the spirit of the age, have become interested in the electric telephone and its practical application.
