Alexander Graham Bell and the Story of the Telephone (Uncharted, Unexplored, and Unexplained)

It took a teacher of the deaf to figure out a better way for people to communicate with each other over long distances. The son and grandson of celebrated speakers, he was the child of a deaf mother. He began his experiments hoping to improve on the human voice box and offer deaf people a better way to communicate. But he didn't just devise a new form of the telegraph. Instead, he invented an entirely new device that could be used by anyone. This instrument would change the way that people communicate around the world. It is the telephone and its inventor's name is Alexander Graham Bell.
