Charles Singleton (C.S.) Bell changed the way Americans communicated on the new frontier. Following in Paul Revere's footsteps, his innovations made bells part of everyday life.
C.S. Bell designed, manufactured, and sold one million bells and one million grinders, on five of the seven continents in the 1800's. Charles Singleton Bell, his son C.E. Bell, and his granddaughter Virginia Bell dominated iron bells with their secret formula, Crystal Metal.
The Bells' is a walk-through history, discovering little known facts that shaped the way humans communicated over long distances for thousands of years. It delves into the evolution of bells and bell innovations, the role they play round the world, and in outer space.
