Produktbeschreibung
A lucid, respectful window into a pivotal moment in sound and science. This study reveals how careful observation and spirited inquiry in a Washington DC laboratory sparked a chain of inventions that would change everyday life. Development Of The Phonograph At Alexander Graham Bell's Volta Laboratory offers a concise, readable account of the phonograph's birth and the scholarly tensions that shaped its progress. Written as a museum bulletin article and presented here as a refined historical record, it reads as both historical technical study and scholarly historical report, tracing the volta laboratory contributions and the broader arc of audio recording evolution. The narrative sits at the crossroads of the history of science collections and late nineteenth-century experimentation, making it vital for history researchers and museum professionals alike, as well as curious readers who relish precise, human-scale discovery. This republication by Alpha Editions is more than a reprint. Out of print for decades, it has been restored for today's and future generations, perfectly preserving its tone, clarity, and context. For casual readers drawn to crisp, story-forward history and classic literature collectors seeking a rare cultural treasure, the book offers a respectful, informative experience and a meaningful basis for comparing early phonograph history with later milestones. A compact, engaging volume that honours its significance while inviting fresh reflection on the origins and evolution of sound.
