The Young Telegraph Operator
Today, we ride the rails again with Thomas Edison and we look at his early career as a telegrapher with the story “The Young Telegraph Operator” from the book “The Boy's Life of Edison” written by William H. Meadowcroft. Be sure to check out the link below for the blog from Historical Ken. It really cleared up the mystery about the route that Thomas Edison took as he traveled back and forth from Port Huron to Detroit.
