| Summary | "Samuel F. B. Morse, His Letters and Journals" by Samuel Finley Breese Morse is a historical account, likely written in the early 20th century. This work provides a detailed exploration of the life of Samuel Morse, the famous painter and inventor of the telegraph, through his personal letters and journals, presenting both the triumphs and struggles of his life. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Morse's early life, detailing his birth into a prominent family in Massachusetts and his upbringing under the strict yet nurturing guidance of his religious parents. The correspondence showcases the strong moral and educational values instilled in him while revealing Morse's aspirations, particularly his passion for painting and his struggles with academic pressures at Yale. Through these letters, we see a young Morse navigating the challenges of his youth, developing a deep interest in the arts and the emerging field of electricity, setting the stage for his future contributions to society.
