Scientific Mysteries, a collection of simple and effective experiments. (1891)

A fascinating look back at 19th century scientific text aimed at young budding scientists of the time. Some of the experiments seem a little adventurous in today's litiginous society. I can't imagine them being performed in schools these day's without numerous hazardous substance risk assessments and legal disclaimers. Many beautiful hand drawn illustrations. Worth a look.
