Triumphs of invention and discovery in art and science
A popular history of inventors and inventions written by James Hamilton Fyfe and published by T. Nelson and Sons in London, Edinburgh and New York in 1876, aimed at general and younger readers. Wood engravings stage inventors at work in kitchens, workshops and printing rooms, with hearths, lathes, hand presses, longcase clocks and glassware; useful for period tools, cluttered interiors and figures bent over tasks.
