The Morse telegraph launched the electronic telecommunications industry and reduced the travel time of information from days, weeks and months to seconds and minutes. It was one of the most important breakthrough inventions of all time. George F. Botjer's examination of the creator of the telegraph is based on previously unpublished archival sources. It considers Samuel F. B. Morse, the creator of the first telegraph, and the ways in which place and time had an effect on the launch of his invention and his resulting fame, and how the invention affected the inventor himself.

Samuel Finley Breese Morse (* 27. April 1791 in Charlestown, Massachusetts; 2. April 1872 in New York) war ein US-amerikanischer Erfinder und Professor für Malerei, Plastik und Zeichenkunst. Morse entwickelte ab 1837 den ersten brauchbaren Schreibtelegrafen (Morseapparat) und gemeinsam mit einem Mitarbeiter außerdem den Morsecode in der später als Land Line Code oder American Morse Code bezeichneten Form. Damit schuf Morse die praktischen Voraussetzungen für eine zuverlässige elektrische Telegrafie, wie sie wenig später auch zum Einsatz kam.
