Wonders of electricity
A popular science survey of electricity by Jean Baptiste Alexandre Baille, translated and edited by John W. Armstrong for Scribner, Armstrong and Co. in New York, 1872, aimed at general readers and students. Wood engravings show telegraph keys, induction coils, galvanometers, gear trains and battery jars on plank benches, drawn in fine ruled hatching that suits cutouts, diagram overlays and technical spot art.
