The Wonderful Epoch of Samuel Morse the Telegraph Inventor Milos Bogdanovic

Spiritual moments from the life and epoch of the telegraph inventor Samuel Morse reveal an epoch of the greatest enlightenment of Western civilization, an epoch of reason, scientific and cultural prosperity, a time of true democracy and freedom. But today we do not live anymore in a century of reason and enlightenment, but in a century of egoism, slavery to feelings, epoch of superstition, political correctness, fear of conspiracy, great role of the state, but also in the time of hopelessness, when the Western civilization does not know or does not want to know how to escape the conflict of general moral liberalism with authoritarian right-wing "solutions". Thus, when in his intention to overcome the temptations of this age, one hears the discouraging voices and senseless excuses for evil, he can dispute them with the arguments presented in this collection of historical sources and analyses of the greatest minds of that enlightened era, who, as the reader can be assured, foretold the present crisis of civilization as the fruit of renunciation of the spiritual and moral principles of its former prosperity.
