520 _aSummary: In the early 1920s Mourly Vold, a nearly blind physics prodigy, discovers a way to tap into the long-distance telephone line and set up a communications network with other blind people nationwide. William Randolph Hearst is appalled, Alexander Graham Bell is delighted- and Mourly Vold, a folk hero of sorts, finds himself on a quixotic adventure into the heart of American big business.
