These pages show a book offered by Siemens and Halske in 1860. They were the major maker and supplier of telegraph instruments in Europe. The book describes the instruments in use at that time. It also explains the theory behind submarine telegraph transmission and the electrical and mechanical instruments and cables that make it possible. Unfortunately, the copy was made in the Siemens Archives in Munich and it is not very good but I think you will find that it is readable.
