Summary | "Since the invention of the telephone, there has been controversy over who really invented it: Was it really Alexander Graham Bell? Or was is Elisha Gray-or someone else? But, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the first patent issued to a design for a telephone, making Alexander Graham Bell the man credited with changing communication forever! Readers learn about the early life that led Bell to invent the telephone as well as his other accomplishments, including the successful Bell Telephone Company.
