Title: Victorian Building 7
Review: This is an interesting old public domain book, and the price is certainly right. As is often the case with books of this vintage, the prose is sometimes unnecessarily flowery, but it's an interesting story. I glossed over about half the chapters and read the interesting ones in a few hours.Some things never change. The first cable worked initially, the the creator was universally lauded as a hero and promoted to celebrity status. When the cable stopped working, the universal praise turned to scorn. This was quickly followed by the appearance of conspiracy theorists, who proved why it could have never possibly worked in the first place, and that it must have been a hoax. The author spends the better part of one of the chapters demonstrating how the conspiracy theorists were, indeed, wrong.
