    A well-researched book. It could be a little easier to read, but the content is fascinating. Provides new perspective to communication history.

    Interesting take on the telegraph’s impact. A bit dense at times, but insightful overall. Sheds light on the anxieties of the era.

    Important contribution to the field of colonial studies. It highlights the often-overlooked role of communication in shaping empires. Some parts are slow.

    The book is a bit dry, but the information is valuable for anyone interested in colonial history and technology. Worth reading with patience.

    A deep dive into a specific topic. It is definitely for academics. I wish it was more accessible to general readers like me.

    Fascinating! Lahiri Choudhury connects technology and imperialism in a way I hadn’t considered before. The book provokes thought, especially about power.

    I struggled with some of the jargon, but the core ideas were very interesting. A good addition to the field, but not for beginners.
