About

In 1855 Charles Todd had a bold dream to build a telegraph line across Australia to connect it to the world. By 1870, Singapore had joined the global network: now for Australia. Todd and his men succesfully erected thousands of telegraph poles - one every 80 metres - across land that was relentlessly inhospitable and largely unknown to them.
