The 3rd edition of Ralph Meyer's popular book, Old-Time Telephones, first published in 1995, was published electronically by North Carolina State University.
A long time "go-to" reference for collectors, for the first time, the 3rd edition is available only on-line in electronic form. It may be read on a computer or tablet, with the ability to zoom in on details of photos or diagrams. Portions may be printed as desired.
It includes many updates, based on comments on the 2nd edition and on additional research done by the author while preparing other articles on telephone history. The text is searchable, so no index is needed.
Background on the book, author and other related resources including Telephony 101 (discussions based on the second edition), a Collector's Edition and Tech Corner for non-engineers (article series) is available on the TCI Site here:
