In the late 1800s, long-distance communication was
difficult. Though there was a postal service, it was slow and
unreliable Letters could take many weeks or even months
to travel cross country. Quickly reaching a faraway loved
one in an emergency was only possible via the electric
telegraph, which was not available to everyone. In contrast
today Americans communicate freely inexpensively, and
frequently over all distances with cell phones and
computers, Friends and family, no matter how distant, are
only a push of a button away
