In the 1860s, Americans, Russians and Canadians struggled with starvation, rugged terrain and sub-Arctic winters to connect the continents by telegraph-the world's largest building project at that time. The hundreds of miles of telegraph line built in Canada operated for 113 years. "Continental Dash" tells the remarkable story for the first time from the standpoint of the workers.
