This book narrates the trials and tribulations of the first telegraph line established between Britain and India under the patronage of the British government. It highlights the efforts of its Irish author, Colonel Patrick Stewart, in bringing this groundbreaking technology to the Indian subcontinent, and the remarkable engineering feats undertaken during the project.
