Graham Bell was born in Scotland in 1847, but when he was a young man of twentythree he moved with his parents to Canada. Before the years was over, young Graham had left
his family and gone to Boston. Though Bell was a dreamer, he was also a practical thinker and a
man of action. In Boston, where he worked by day as a teacher of the deaf, he worked far into
