By creating of the electric telegraph and unified language that managed
to connect all four corners of our world, Samuel Morse solidified his
place in the annals of our history. Here you can find out the story of
his life, work, and contributions to the human race.
*Samuel Morse* (April 27, 1791 - April 2, 1872) was an American painter
and inventor who is best remembered today for his invention of
single-wire telegraph system and the co-inventor of the *Morse code* -
method of transmitting textual information as a series of on and off
tones. His discovery soon changed the way the messages are sent and
received in the entire world, and even today Morse code is still in use
in various areas of radio communications. Although he was considered to
be poor during the majority of his life, he managed to live as an
accomplished painter until he focused his interests on electromagnetism
and electric communication.
