Many dedicated pioneers who sacrifice to make history of communication possible are portrayed with dedication in the book as Pioneers without reward. These pioneers stood the test of time.They suffered, study, worked hard, shared their knowledge and freely gave wisdom in so manyof their talents. They are simply thrust up to descendents and most likely lost to history, so to speak; are forgotten as soon as they die.

the book takes you on courageous adventure to save communication during the coupe and offers vivid insightsinto twodecades of bloody wars of military and sociopolitical depression and suffering that culminated in indescribable violence and disregard for human needs
