Flame, electricity and the camera; man's progress from the first kindling of fire to the wireless telegraph and the photography of color
A popular history of technology by George Iles, published in New York by Doubleday & McClure in 1900 for general readers tracing fire, electricity, telegraphy and photography. Wood-engraved and halftone figures show lettered apparatus — dynamos, horseshoe magnets, wound armatures, lens-and-tube instruments — alongside photographic spectrum bands, useful as labelled diagram stock and hatched shading references.
