Wireless was the new frontier at sea
When Goldfrap wrote, wireless telegraphy was a young and exciting technology. Ships used it to send messages in Morse code across water where no wire could reach. It changed how captains called for help, shared news and spoke with the shore.
The operator who sat at the wireless set became a new kind of sailor. He needed patience, a good ear and quick thinking. Writers for young readers saw the drama in that role.
A series built around ocean wireless could therefore combine real wonder with adventure. Readers of the time were curious about how such machines worked, and these books fed that curiosity.
That’s 1 of 4 key points.
