Laying the transatlantic telegraph cable, 1865 (1866)
Laying the transatlantic telegraph cable, 1865 (1866). Preparing to grapple for the broken cable from the bows of the SS Great Eastern, 2 August 1865. This attempt to lay the cable ended in failure, but the following year the Great Eastern succeeded in laying the cable connecting Valentia in Ireland to Trinity Bay, Newfoundland. Instead of the length of a sea voyage, communication time between the two sides of the Atlantic became a matter of seconds. From The Atlantic Telegraph by WH Russell. (London, 1866)
