THIS IS AN AMAZING GLIMPSE OF AMERICAN LIFE IN 1873. REALLY INTERESTING ARTICLES AND ILLUSTRATIONS ON MAKING OCEAN TELEGRAPH CABLES  MONKS & LIFE IN THE CLOISTER AND THE STEAM SHIP ATLANTIC AND THE WRECK THEREOF.  REALLY INTERESTING!!! THE ILLUSTRATIONS ARE INCREDIBLE.  THIS PAPER IS IN GOOD CONDITION WITH NORMAL WEAR WITH  TORN & TATTERED EDGES.  BUT FOR THE MOST PART ITS STILL IN  GOOD CONDITION AND VERY LEGIBLE.
