Krátký popis

This work chronicles the rise of Western Union Telegraph from the early years of telecommunications to its apogee as the first corporation to monopolize an industry on a national scale. The battles over Western Union's monopoly illuminate the fierce tensions over the rising power of corporations after the Civil War and the reshaping of the American political economy.
