- dgritsko 9y agoI came to the comments section to make sure this article was posted, it's such a fantastic read. If you read it and are hungry for more, check out "How the World Was One" by Arthur C. Clarke. It's a fascinating history of telecommunications with a large focus on submarine cables. https://www.amazon.com/How-World-Was-Arthur-Clarke/dp/0553074407 https://www.amazon.com/How-World-Was-Arthur-Clarke/dp/055307...
