Klappentext
A history of female telegraph operators from 1846 to the mid-20th century, exploring their work, their daily lives and their workplace issues. It uses non-traditional sources, including the telegraphers' trade journals, company records, and oral and written histories by the operators.

Zusammenfassung
The role of the telegraph operator in the mid-nineteenth century was like that of today's software programmer/analyst, according to independent scholar Tom Jepsen, who notes that in the cyberspace of long ago, male operators were often surprised to learn that the first-class man on the other end of the wire was a woman.
