A school physics textbook by Mark R. Wright, published in London by Longmans in 1889 for students beginning the subject. The 149 wood engravings show benchtop apparatus — magnets suspended on stands, pith-ball electroscopes in glass jars, torsion balances, a hand holding a charged rod — drawn in fine line and hatching with cast shadows on plain tables.
