About this book
Boys who wanted to make their own electrical apparatus are the audience for Joseph H. Adams's handbook. Early chapters show how to build cells and batteries, push-buttons and switches, induction-coils, electric bells, a burglar-alarm and galvanometers; later ones turn to resistance and Ohm's law, the telephone, line and wireless telegraphs, and dynamos and motors. Joseph B. Baker adds an explanation of electric light, heat, power and traction, and the book also has a dictionary of electrical terms. The frontispiece shows Thomas A. Edison dictating to his graphophone.
