Viac o knihe
A "revisionist biography of Alexander Graham Bell, telling the true--and troubling--story of the inventor of the telephone. We think of [him] as the inventor of the telephone, but that's not how he saw his own career. Bell was an elocution teacher by profession.

And yet by the end of his life, despite his best efforts--or perhaps, more accurately, because of them--Bell had become the American Deaf community's most powerful enemy"--
