Description

Thomas Edison, by then an international figure in his 61st year, recorded this speech for the opening of the 1908 New York Electrical Show.  He looks back at the work required to lay the first transatlantic telegraph cable 50 years earlier, and recognises the exciting opportunities in the field of electricity afforded to those joining the industry at this time.
