To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At noon today, there will undoubtedly be confusion.
—The New York Times, 1883 On November 18, 1883, one man stopped time in New York City for nearly four minutes. The fellow thumbing the watch springs to a halt was one James Hamblet, the general superintendent of the Time Telegraph Company and manager of the time service of Western Union. In this capacity, Hamblet was effectively Gotham’s archduke of time, a role he had earned through hard work and creativity. Hamblet had invented an electric cl...ock that could chime in a remote location, a device of great use for railway stations, which were required to display the time. Hamblet also managed Western Union’s own finely calibrated clock in room 48 of its 195 Broadway office. On that day, the regulator, as it was called, kicked off the mammoth task of synchronizing railroad timetables—no small feat, since as late as 1882 American railroads had a blizzard of time standards and therefore possessed more than seventy different answers to one very simple question: What time is it?
