    The second edition of this work. A collection of lectures looking at various aspects of science, discussing mechanics, hydrostatics, hydraulics, pneumatics, acoustics, optics, astronomy, electricity, and more. With a folding plate to the frontispiece, and fifteen plates. Written by the Rev. J. Joyce, who also wrote 'Scientific Dialogues'. With a bookplate to the front pastedown, 'La Vie Durnat, John Cornwall'. This is probably John Wolfran Cornwall, born 1870, born into an impressive naval lineage. Collated, complete.
