This article discusses not only Alexander Graham Bell and his invention of the telephone, but discusses historical preservation and how we continue to memorialise and preserve historical figures and artefacts. It's a good insight into history as a process, and an interesting article.
Does it discus how that preservation may distort history by simplifying the act of invention into a singular act while in at least this case the telephone has many originators.
