Bag om The All Red Line

The All Red Line: The Annals And Aims Of The Pacific Cable Project (1903) is a historical account of the Pacific Cable Project written by George Johnson. The book details the efforts of the British Empire to establish a telegraph cable linking the various colonies and territories of the empire, creating a communication network that would span the globe. Johnson provides a comprehensive overview of the project's inception, its funding, and the technical challenges that had to be overcome to make it a reality. The book also explores the political and economic implications of the project, and its role in the larger context of British imperialism. The All Red Line is a fascinating look at a pivotal moment in the history of global communication and the British Empire, and provides valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities of technological innovation in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
