The Almost Black Phoneman

Have you ever wanted to know what it's like to work for "ma-bell" or what used to be "ma-bell" a long time ago? This book takes you into the life of a telephone repair man and appears to be written in an easy to read conversational style.

The author talks about his many "visits" and horror stories of how he spent his days working the phone lines. It's a very funny and entertaining read. It's also not too many pages so you might be able to finish in one or two sittings.
